Ford Motor's Evil Car (video)

can't see shit captain!

Try it now captain.

LOL. Can't wait to see that Ray Charles graphic.

Wow, that's an actual Ford Motor Co. commercial that was released without corporate approval.

The cat was computer animated thank God and really didn't get its head cut off by the sunroof.



Ford Upset by Web Ad Showing Decapitation

DEARBORN, Mich. - Ford Motor Co. is upset by the release of an Internet advertisement that depicts the decapitation of a computer-animated cat by a power moonroof hatch, saying it didn't authorize the clip.

The ad for the Sportka, a hatchback sold in Europe, shows the realistic-looking orange cat climbing on top of the car and poking its head into the open moonroof, The Detroit News reported Sunday. The hatch slides closed, the cat struggles briefly and its headless body slides to the ground.

Ford says the clip was conceived without its approval by ad agency Ogilvy & Mather as part of a "viral marketing" campaign for the Sportka. "Viral marketing," a type of e-mail marketing, is the electronic version of word of mouth, usually inviting recipients to forward an e-mail to others.

"We find this unauthorized ad totally unacceptable and reprehensible and deplore the fact that it has been unofficially issued," Ford spokesman Oscar Suris said.

Ogilvy & Mather Worldwide issued a statement saying it also didn't sanction the commercial, which was leaked onto the Internet on April 1.

"Both companies find this unofficial advertisement totally unacceptable and reprehensible," the statement said. "The action in the video clip was totally computer generated, and we would like to assure you that no animal was harmed in its making."

oh my god, heads are going to turn for releasing that one, The animal groups are going to freak the fuck out haha

this vid has been floating around for awhile now, good to see some explanation for it all

indeed, they'll take some actions for sure !!

Brutal...PETA will be all over that

What, this is crazy dudes..

i like the ad...

I thought it was a prank sarcastic style ad done by some punks to mock Ford Motors and who didn't care about the cat getting killed its head sliced off.

Its still hard to believe that cat is a computer image. It sure looks real to me. Can someone blow up the frame to see when they did the switch from real to the digital cat?

If that was real, wouldn't there be blood squirting everywhere and down the side of the car?

I kinda figured it was a computer generated cat when it started sticking it's head in the sunroof. It looks like a real cat on the ground.

either way it got people talking, they are enjoying the coverage no doubt.

like ford cares about a digital cat, this is all publicity.

If it was real there would be blood.

Hands up who's going out to buy the car now?

time 4 cat soup

It looks to brutal to be real for me

thats funny shit ! I hate cats walking on my car !
