Continuing the brand's subversive advertising theme, the latest spot for Skittles sees an 'evil' Witch get the tables turned on her by an interminably boring teen.
Utliingsing the age-old crone technique of luring youngsters with sweeties (come n, we've all read the Brothers Grimm), this conjurer finds herself bamboozled by her victim's endless need for candy-coated treats.
Filled with the kind of delightful touches that make all Skittles commercials a joy (we particularly enjoy her Velcro sneakers and the teen's description of her as "a magic"), this latest offering from DDB Chicago and Smuggler director Bjorn Ruhmann is both Halloween trick and treat.
