Imagine falling asleep in front of the Tv, then waking up several hours later at like 1AM and seeing any of these ads playing. It would feel like a real life horror movie.
This just feels like I’m watching an SCP disguised as a shopping store that’s about 15 minutes away from having an MTF go in and get totally wiped out trying to figure out how to contain a floating hand constantly shooting commercials.
@@Idontknow-km5hp if we were to make it into one, we’d have to change from omega mart. Can still use the core idea, but as far as I remember, SCP wiki is pretty strict on no references
I'm just disappointed there's no real grocery store with ads like this: imagine advertising normal products and one or more cursed non-product. I would love that company.
Um... that's actually a very good definition for something that's high-quality art: if words *could* describe it, the artist's work would be redundant in a way. I use the criterion of "no words that could possibly describe how these (works of art) make me feel" when looking at large art collections or at art fairs. If I don't get goosebumps, there is no point of spending time on it...
OMG, I didn't even look at it that way and I'm a pessimistic asshole myself. I totally thought it was more related to the products they sell. As in you have no idea what these products really are, what's in the physical store itself, or how many different products they may sell based on how many departments they may have. Maybe it's like a big ass Target with a grocery store kinda place. But that's just my American commercialism mind at work. What you came up with is by far more glorious. Real ominous considering Omega is the final letter in the alphabet. Like this is the last store you'll ever shop because these are all weird end of world products that don't make sense, end of days kinda thing... or simply, these mother fuckers at Omega Mart are gonna fuck you up real good if you don't shop there!
They did such a good job making these look and sound vintage that I literally thought this was a thing that has been around for a while and I was unaware of it
@@member-berry-bonbons1124 As a person who grew up with with analog video, VHS, standard definition, interlacing and scanlines, it looked annoyingly fake to me. It doesn't look authentic, it looks like a high definition video with the contrast turned down, the exposure blown out, maybe a softening filter applied, and a very unrealistic "random" horizontal artifact.
It's Omega, because it's not Beta Mart. Including it is a glitchy like 5th dimensional beings said " LET'S BECOME A STORE" and did it in the 3rd dimension.
@@MaoRatto its like just a pocket dimension outside of time and space where your reality can warp from the slightest accidents, like squeezing the bread and it makes a chew toy noise.
This isn’t horror This is terror Horror is when you are temporally scared Terror is when you constantly fell un-nerved by the thing in question A good example of horror is five nights at fredies This is a good example of terror
The videotape tracking lines are the icing on the cake to make this look like an authentic video from the eighties! Super entertaining work, well done!
_"You have no idea what's in store for you !"_ To regular customers just sound like a corpo's catchy slogan but to enemies or rivals of the company it sounds like a genuine threat or a warning, I like that premise.
@@Andrew982_ if you go to the real Omega Mart in Las Vegas it has quite a lot of lore in the back of the store. You can also buy the weird crap they sell.
I love how ominous their slogan is. ''You have no idea what’s in store for you!'' It sounds both like a tagline and a threat. perfect phrasing that works both ways. (both as a catchy market slogan and as a horrible threat)
@@popolnocy When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these?! Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! …with the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!
Imagine talking to an Omega Mart cashier. "I hope you're having a great day! Oh, don't mind the lemons. They don't like it when you stare at them for too long."
"Someone stepped on one earlier and seems to have phased halfway into the floor. Please avoid the area marked by ecru cones until our difficult spill specialists can clean up the mess. Have a nice day!"
“Guys we accidentally sold illegal lemons. We need them back what do we do?” “Um how about a PSA?” “Your fired” “What about a message with a sentient one eye lemon so they can give it back to us?” *genius*
When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought they were real ads. So I was gonna congratulate the creator on preserving lost media but this is so much better!
This is what happens when you contract a advance weapons research company to design a bar-code scanner. They probably incorporated some classified weapons technology that was meant for the battle field.
Actually been to Omega Mart in Las Vegas, pretty neat place. Lots of weird things to explore. Front looks like a regular market but certain areas (like the freezer section) lead to the back and its like being inside an alien spaceship.
i got the feeling that this was an alien outpost trying to disguise itself as a grocery store to learn more about humans and their culture and not quite succeeding.
I thought these commercials were fake too, until i looked up the place and it’s real! And then my brain was like: “Huh, maybe these are online exclusive ads (like you could only see these ads on the internet like as a RU-vid ad or on any website)” but when i saw this comment... i was genuinely surprised they took the time to put it on tv, imagine the people who saw the happy new years ad for the first time and then they jump when they hear the ending. Since most people who watch TV are elderly people, I think that might cause some heart attacks... But other than that, I’m impressed with the work done here. They have the mix of both creepy and hilarious at the same time.
I thought the commercials were for a creepypasta-like youtube thing. Like watch them in any order to get the whole story. Then found it was a real place that essentially that's what you actually do and went "Welp I know where I wanna go next."
I bought some Lil’ Meow and now my cat is terminally ill despite enjoying it. Tuna rabbit doesn’t cause cancer though, only Pigeon Mouse. My bestie boight tuna rabbit and her cats aren’t sick
Its been around for a while but its mostly just used to feed poor elderly people like my grandparents (only reason i know of it) so im just hoping it doesn't blow up and become some weird fad or something
The impression I get from these commercials is that despite being run by aliens, Omega Mart has a greater sense of accountability and responsibility than most Earth based corporations.
Well that's because their smarter than us... not because were humans, but because they've had to deal with all the mental contortions of a developing society, through internal crises which have brought most civilizations towards the Fermi Paradox... multiple times and survived! They're wondering if we'll survive the fake wokism and the mental contortions that must be going on to condone such irrational behavior that self-victimizes purely for the reason of being at another's expense, which they can capitalize off of.
Imagine your mom just thinks this is a casual store with a lot of short prices and then she just walks in and then there’s just a bunch of distorted things that she actually try’s to buy
I remember stumbling upon these at work two years ago. I was working a graveyard shift and bored out of my mind. I thought I stumbled upon some cursed forgotten archive of something and I was like "wow, these are incredibly creepy and uncanny. I love em!"
I like how you can tell that the "Lemons" used to be people are begin panicking once they fully realize what has happened to them shortly before an arm comes to get them.
I remember buying condoms from Omega Mart last week, and they were great! Granted, I still haven’t figured out how to take it off quite yet, but I’m sure that’ll sort itself out here soon!
Have you seen any Will McDaniels RU-vid video's or Scarfolk Council blog? They would both blend in quite nicely with the Omega Mart dimension.Although Scarfolk humor tends to get a bit darker.
Without being disturbing?????!?!! Oh you people in USA are really crazy In Russia if you'd show ad like that im sure 90% people would call police, report the ad and sue the omega mart for disturbance and providing to panic
@@lolnjeoglondajmejejplejlis3365 you live in Russia. Death is constantly a hair's breadth away, and if a company isn't giving its cut to the mafia, it dissappears. Omega Mart would be able to operate with impunity so long as it gave Vladimir Putin the opportunity to profit from it.
@@lolnjeoglondajmejejplejlis3365 ...You do realize OmegaMart isn't a real store, and these aren't real commercials, right? Edit: Apparently, no one is reading the rest of this thread, so I'll say it here too. I know it's a real PLACE, it's an art project pop-up type of thing. It's still not a real store, and these aren't real commercials, rather, advertising for the attraction.
It’s an art installation, but it functions like a real grocery store, in that you can actually buy the products there. There’s also hidden doors and slides, and a storyline to work through
I would say omegamart has the weirdcore style. But it's a real grocery store, just more kid like cause there's fun things to do when your parents are shopping. And the food is normal, just weirdly advertised
@@ofexistence267 I think thats the most terrifying aspect of Interdimensional travlel stuf. imagen coming to a world that looks and feels normal, but then there just that one litel thing thats not right. :O like you just dont know with other dimensions, reality is strange enough as it already is, its what we got, and yet we can imagen so many other ways reality could be like.
It's like a friendly eldrich horror is trying to fit in around humans by pretending to be a grocery store. It read a book on 'How to grocery store for humans', but ended up skimming most of it and just looking at the pictures.
I know I'm probably stating the obvious, but I ADORE the way this looks. What makes it so unsettling is that everything is mostly normal... besides the obvious. They're just like a regular commercial until they're not. For the most part, no jumpscares, just weird, unusual things that leave you wondering what the fuck you just watched. You could probably get someone unsuspecting to watch this easily because it hits so suddenly and so unexpectedly. THIS is the kind of stuff that gives you real chills and I LOVE it.
@@canon-de-75 I think jumpscares can be good if done right; they just got very overdone very fast. But I dunno, surreal stuff like this has always struck a chord.
The pig interrupting the slogan and loudly tooting had me fucking rolling, i never know how to take these art projects, am i meant to be scared or laughing?? Agjskdlv
