Anti-KFC Ads to Shock 'Saw V' Moviegoers

Written by PETA

Posted 10-03-2008

Just in time for the release of Saw V and the craziness of the Halloween horror-movie season, PETA will be running one of our creepy KFC ads in movie theaters in Baltimore and Denver for the next four weeks. This will really make horror-movie lovers think about the horror that chickens go through just to end up in a greasy KFC bucket.

While people cringe in their seats at the blood and guts on screen, hopefully they'll think back to the ad and realize that the same bloody butchering scene goes on in slaughterhouses every day.

Check out the ad here and tell us what you think:

If I was a chicken I would rather be killed by CAK than possibly be scalded to death or have to hear the agony of those who go before me. Before factory farms farmed animals had some semblance of a life but incrementally small freedoms were taken away. These freedoms seemingly deficient as they are can for the most part only be regained incrementally also. While I don't support the eating of animals killed "humanely" or not most people aren't going to stop eating meat tonight. I'd rather see a step in the right direction than one in the wrong one.

The concept used in this ad is genius. Purely genius. I applaud whoever came up with the idea! Now if we could just get ads like these on everyday TV? I think if that could happen and ads like these were played as much as your average toothpaste commercial it would open many minds.

THAT WAS GREAT! WOW! AND IT WAS SCAREY! I WISH NO ANIMAL HAD TO DIE BUT UNTIL IT'S AGAINST THE LAW WHICH WOULD BE GREAT CONTROLL ATMOSPHERE KILLING IS ALL WE CAN MAKE THEM DO TO LESSEN THE PAIN FOR THE POOR CHICKENS. HOPEFULLY ONE DAY IN OUR LIFE TIME WE MAY SEE A STOP TO ALL OF THIS MURDER OF GOD'S ANIMALS.

I personally do not eat meat and am Canadian but I do not judge those who do. No one gets upset if a shark eats a fish or if a bear eats a deer. Its the circle of life. What I do however believe in the humane killing of animals that people choose to eat.We have the means and the way to make sure that animals don't suffer so we should do it. I don't eat meat because its a personal choice not everyone is going to make that choice and we have to respect that. We cannot change those people nor do we have the right to. Nevertheless we do have the right to stand up against abuse of any kind. Which is what I believe PETA is doing.

Great point Ryan. I actually didn't know that about PETA and Canada...yet I can't judge them for it because the fact is "baby steps" work best on everyone when you are trying to direct change. I'm certain PETA chews their own arms off trying to be neutral with animal killers like the ones you speak of. It's like trying to handle a nasty client and keep your job at the same time.

I love it it is a wonderful ad. Thank you Peta for all the hard work you do for the animals! I may not agree 100 with some ads but the fact you risk your life freedom is noble thank you all! God bless!

Hello there I am trying to forward the video "Who's skin are you in" but the video is no longer available. Please do something about it because forwarding this video made me feel I save at least one animal.

Almost all of us grew up eating meat, wearing leather, and going to circuses and zoos. We never considered the impact of these actions on the animals involved. For whatever reason, you are now asking the question: Why should animals have rights? Read more.
