In this weeks installment of creepy-as-shit PSAs from the U.K., we have a campaign from agency 18 Feet and Rising about the apparently quite talkative inner demons that people with a gambling problem struggle with. <\/p>\n
Two spots below are part of a new Voices campaign aimed at young people 15-24, recently identified as a risk group in data from the Gambling Commission. The campaign is also notable for being directed by Tom Tagholm of Park Pictures, well known for making the original and stunning Meet the Superhumans Paralympics ad for Channel 4 back in 2012. <\/p>\n
The new campaignfor BeGambleAware, the leading charity in the U.K. committed to minimizing gambling-related harmpersonifies addicts troubled inner voice in the form of a creepy bystander who has clearly watched Ben Kingsley in Sexy Beast more than one. <\/p>\n
The unsettling spots certainly leave an impression. Will addicts see themselves in these scenarios? Perhaps, though the sad truth is that any addiction is not something that can easily be scared out of you. <\/p>\n
