Snake Drug Dealer (1980)

I Like This Commercial!

Anyone else thinking about The Nostalgia Critic while watching this?

This dude is messed up looks like that vulcans on star trek.

"Hey little dude. See your mama and daddy out of the room. I've gotta get you up on this. You know who I am? A snake! Dealing in weed, coke, crack, your choice. Take one hit and you'll do anything to get more. Steal from your mama, lie, cheat on your homeboys, but hey that's the price you pay when you're dealing with someone like me.
Now some folks will tell you that I'm dealing in poison but hey do I look like the kind of guy who would do that to a kid like you? YEEESSSS!!!!"

not bad; but a little racist. Not ALL dealers are black males; there are plenty of whites and females as well. lol metalchick86; he'd be a good recurit

I wonder if this dude join cobra or not? hmmmmmm

DAMN U!,DAMN U TO HELL!You rapping snake drug dealer,you and your damn drugs and your abilty to change from man to snakE........ HOW DARE YOU TRICK ME INTO TRUSTING YOU!

I used to run away when this commercial came on.

I love how Snakey has to answer his own goddamn question, as if kids didn't get the message that "Drug Dealers = EVIL SNAKES".

Man this ad creepd the crap outta me waay back.

Holy crap this was terrifying

I remember this one as well. Although, it kind of loses it's scare effect when you start asking "Damn, that's one cool makeup job! Who did it?!"

Ahhh...Snake...My old nemesis. How many nightmares did you give me when I was a kid. Fuck you, Snake! FUCK YOU AND YOUR GODDAMN DRUGS!!!

scared the shit out of me as a kid and i still find it scary

this scared the piss out of me when i was little

I'll stay away from drugs as long as I don't see this PSA again

I thought these PSAs were ment to help kids not traumatize them for life!

I definitely remember seeing this. The guy's voice creeped me out more than the snake mask at the end.

I may not have seen this one back then but just looking at it right now kinda sends shivers down my spine.

this commercial is one of the reasons why i came to this site. i remember running into another room whenever it would come on then peek in after a few seconds to check if it was over=[

i hate that psa scared the hell out of me

what i mean get clair sorry

hey if that was theo let me go and clair. remember when she found a joint in his study books.

Mysteries of the unknown with the grey aliens I HAVE 90 percent of that commercial! also the precursor to that Enchanted World with the warewolves!!!!!! also a anti crack psa with a freak in the morgue too there on youtube right now but will be on here soon now i got my account activated.

I remember that "Mysteries of the Unknown" book series commercial, and it scared the HELL out of me.

It will make you cheat on your homeboys? Who are they REALLY trying to target?

It does appear it is Malcolm Jamal Warner and sounds like him as well.

Yeah I remember this PSA it would scare the crap outta me too, especially after spending a few quiet hours in my basement play room playing Nintendo. And btw, I remember that Time-Life book series commercial too. It was for thier "Mysteries of the Unknown" series, and that commercial scared the bajesus outta me too. Someone needs to find that one, havent seen it since I was a kid.

And one more question, is that Malcolm Jamal Warner?

That's freaky when he says "Hey little dude, I see your parents are out of the room," like he's isolating you. It's like they expected kids to be up late watching TV alone.

Back when drug dealers were the bad guys. I used to mimic this commercial.

The snakeman is a shocker,indeed a wake up call.that's what all snakes do,he's just an example.

this commerical scared the crap out of me.

One of the many PSA's that scared me as a child, yes!

stealing from momma=bad

That Ford Ranger in the background around 11 seconds in looks like it was made in the 90's or 2000's. It's something else I've noticed about this.

spooky

hey i realized who this guy is. hes a member of cobra call g.i joe they will take this guy down plus he was black too. aww man why the brothers come on.

thanks

Oh yeah. Scary as hell and just as effective.

i truly know that commercal scared the sh@# out of me after tales form the darkside came back on so freakin scary. at 2:00 in the morning. damn it

I'm wondering who did the make up in that ad? It's really good.

I don't quite remember the ad in question but whenever I see snakes I get scared shitless. I know that this ad is what kept me away from stuff that can hurt me.

Yeah, this PSA definitely used to scare the crap out of me. Though I never understood why, at the end of PSAs like this one, it always seemed like the video part would freeze-frame before the audio faded out. It's like someone paused the picture but you still hear the guy hissing anyway. I've noticed that a lot. Okay, enough.

Woah! That dude looks awsome! I hope he's not already working for King Hiss!

HOLY S*** ya trying to gimmie Nightmares!?!?
ROFL!! I'd never thought this would make this list

IM GLAD SOMEONE PUT THIS IN...i loved this ad...i thought it was cool and creepy....now its just kinde...eh....but just the idea of him become less likeble and more forboding the closer he got was chilling...i was reeeeeaaaly little but i remember it and im glad its here...now i dont feel as crazy
