the thread about nothing...

Speaking of VHS tapes... Does anyone recall any strange advertising Summer 2002 before the movie "The Ring" released ?


There was a really odd guerrilla marketing campaign

My friend and his sister found an unlabeled VHS tape in the parking garage at a local mall. When they put in their VCR to watch it the video played just like the "haunted video" in the movie for about a minute and then cut to black and had words on the screen saying "The Ring Coming to theater on insert date here "
bruh.

i would of been legit terrified if somehow i found the video after seeing the movie without the 'coming soon'.
 
they brought back xoalin showdown

:lol yeah... It was pretty easy to find out what it was about with the title card at the end but without it we would have been extremely disturbed.


It seems like such a weird inefficient way to advertise though.... I imagine out of the tapes found, most of them were thrown away before even being watched. I can only find one reference to this campaign online.

Imma start it Nov. 1 if Cinco doesn't want to do it this yr...He said he might not.
Bruh u can't start sooner???? remember last years started in sept
Nov 1st ain't enough time to get all the names of returning and new peeps then sort by new and returning peeps then write our lists and exchange lists and buy gifts while still doing stuff and buying stuff for people in our daily lives. Is it possible to start sooner.
