well i can tell you why you haven't seen this before: because it's gory and gross and does in NO WAY go with the client.
the people who did this one know nothing about appropriate advertising. looks like a bad student work to me, trying to shock at any cost.
ads like this are even ruining our business. i once worked for a client who was so damn barred concerning letting some fresh air to his moldy brand. why was that? because some stupid kids did some really inappropriate ads which caused decreasing sales.
sorry but this ad is one of the badest i've ever seen.

well, if "never seen something like it before" is your only criteria for greatness, than let's applaud the terrorists of 9/11 or Masons' killers, too.
I don't like the ad too much. I did get the message, it would probably catch my eye in a magazine (thats 2 pluses most of ads don't do), but I think there's too much gore for a food ad.

so what if its eye-catching and unique? such a gory picture is going to make the audience loose their appetite... and want to flip the page instantly... silly ad
Not good. So many aspects of the ad are almost contradicting eachother. Don't even think the injuries are well done on the guy. Prolly a bit gory for a food ad as previsouly mentioned. I'm just not feeling it.

This concept is a 5 mile walk around a 10 foot fence. Unfocused, untargeted, and badly designed to boot. Once you get past the mediocre visual, this "shocker" is backed up by dull copy and has no marketing value whatsoever. Next please.

Whenever advertising people stop making spoof ads for virtual non-clients and send this kind of work to cartoon contests instead of advertising contests, there might be a chance this business can be taken seriously. First the client, then the idea!

I think as a creative I love the different way of looking at it!! Have seen the same strategy before in someones portfolio but never the less the client would need massive balls to buy this...so i rate the strategy good but from selling point of view its ok!!

stupid. pretestuos. useless
Hey, "guest". YOU'RE pretestuos (and pretentious).
If by "useless" you mean extraordinarily eye-catching and unabashedly unique, then I agree.
Personally, I've never seen an ad for a seafood lunch buffet like this before.
So how do I get my revenge?
By eating a shark?
I don't want to go to a buffet where they serve sharkmeat...

Another "bloody" stupid ad!!!
Interesting and intriguing. Point well made.
It is eye catching but... the last thing this guy should seek is revenge. Perhaps a doctor or a mortician first?

ooh its horrific...
can't see more than a glance
appetite for destruction.....makes me wanna puke
Wanting to do an Ad just to get attention. Horrific. It sucks.
