F'd Ad Fridays: Serbian "Skins" ads are real torture

The art direction is interesting. The messaging strategy is on.

But...

Dudes! Torture? The Spanish Inquisition? It may have been over 500 years ago, but it's hardly light comedy. (Unlike when Monty Python did it.) Considering torture is still a scourge of war, and religious intolerance still a major cause, half a millennium might still be "too soon".

Not a PSA

It looks like there will be a moral to the story. There isn't. It's just a promo for the MTV show, Skins.



"Based on the popular British show of the same name, 'Skins' follows a group of nine friends navigating the often-tumultuous world of high school; sex, drugs and angst included."

Well, okay then. Would have made a great social ad, though. For many things.
