Loved it. That was inspired.

The concept was cool and stunningly well executed, but the ending...I'd call it the cherry on top, but that's giving maraschinos way too much credit.

Stephanie, I agree. In the end, everyone should have died because the DJ made a slight error.

Hmm, I appear to have sacrificed clarity for color in my comment (again). I loved the ending; not so fond of maraschino cherrys.
The moment when he realizes what responsibility he's taken on by having to get everything just right is great. His reaction to the realization is perfect. It humanizes the entire video. Or at the very least, it pushes my buttons the right way.

Did I really just type "cherrys"? Yeesh.
Posted by: Stephanie Z | April 27, 2008 12:57 PM
I liked the ending. That look on his face when the doll's head falls off... laughed my ass off.

The sign at 3:16 is certainly realistic.

fabulous vid! Great twist on an old idea, and really well executed.
