This is even sicker than the first one. I'm bothered.

i am too. it's attention grabbing, sure. but not in a good way. this is not 'dark', this is sinister.

I think that's the point, to be sinister. I like the picture.

i dont think this ad is irresponsible...this ad is for a bitter chocolate...most adults eat them...so the communication is for adults..

Apart from being sick, where's the product benefit? It's a creative wank. Egregious fail.

+100 points for thedesignaddict. So your product is "dark". So what? Coal is dark too. I swear I'm getting sick of typing this, but TIE YOUR BRAND IN! It's not just about being funny people - use your brains - that's what clients pay you for.

Also these ads are morally wrong. There's a line. Don't cross it.

Lovely visually, but maybe a bit over the edge?

Trucho y lo que es peor, una porquería inapropiada.
GHOST CAMPAIGN, GHOST AGENCY, VERY WELL KNOWN IN PERU BY THIS KIND OF MEGA GHOST SCUM.
Lo digo porque trabajo en Perú.
NEVER EVER RUN, CAN SAY IT BECAUSE I WORK IN PERU.
Ya es el colmo, ahora vamos a tener que soportar que estos huevones también exporten a las webs de publicidad mundiales su basura truchera.
OBVIOUSLY ADSOFTHEWORLD CAN'T KNOW IT, BUT AT LEAST ONE CAN HELP TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH.

Although visually shocking, this is a great way for a company to get noticed. I love the concept behind this, and the photography is very well done. This image flows nicely, and gets the point across. Because this product is obviously intended for older individuals, I find no qualms with it. People need to get the proverbial stick out of their arse, Learn to find the humor in such things. Overall, I find this ad to be successful. I am now going to search out and purchase myself a bar of their obviously awesome bitter chocolate.
