Review:
I absolutely think this is the best anti-smoking add I've ever seen. Maybe it's because I love the Hammer style Dracula slant on this, or maybe it's just because it's funny. It was created by the National Health Board of Canada to of course raise awareness about the ills of smoking. It shows a Woman who is chain smoking like mad in Gothic garb, when in flies Dracula through the window. He leans in to bite her neck...only to find a little surprise. Anyone interested can find it here to watch: http://beta.nfb.ca/film/ashes_of_doom/
