The Verizon Dead Zones

Clearly, I love television and I watch a lot of it... and because I can't watch everything on DVR, I end up watching a lot of commercials, too. Every so often a set of commercials really stand out as being unique or funny, and the new Verizon ads are great!

While they are still hanging on to that "can you hear me now?" guy (ps- thanks for supplying my dad with endless annoying "can you hear me now?" moments every time we talk on the phone, Verizon) but have parodied some classic horror movies to show that their customers shouldn't have to fear those terrifying "dead zones."

Amityville Horror parody


The Shining parody


I have to say... these commercials actually do scare me a little. I don't like when they come on the air after 9pm.
