A Remarkable End to Unremarkable Ads - The Decapitator

Sometimes when street art and mainstream advertising intersect, the results can be gruesome...gruesome in a good way! Exhibit A - the work of the suddenly famous Decapitator.

Yeah, it's gross, but it takes another blah ad and makes it into something truly remarkable. Not sure if this the the remarkability that Seth Godin was talking about in the Purple Cow. :)

This might be an extreme example, but I'd say this, if you are cranking out the type of AdverPollution that would be more interesting post-decapitation, maybe you should try a bit harder, eh?

Big up to the Egotist for the link.

I like they decided to go with the decapitation look, very interesting. I also like how you got the picture of the guy walking by noticing it. Shows it does grab the attention. Morbid, but fun.
