‘Scream’ and ‘Psycho’ Stars Saved by Google’s Pixel 3 in These Hysterical New Commercials! [Video]
One of the big winners of the ongoing Academy Awards is Google, who just ran a series of commercials where they imagine several high profile films with the invent of the Pixel 3 phone. Two were slashers, Alfred Hitchcock‘s iconic Psycho (196) and Wes Craven‘s infamous Scream (1996), both of which I’ve embedded below.
The spot for Psycho is hysterical as Janet Leigh‘s Marion Crane uses Google to find a nearby hotel, only to find out the Bates Motel only has a one-star rating. As for Scream, Drew Barrymore‘s Casey Becker uses modern tech to spot Billy Loomis (Skeet Ulrich) in his Ghostface mask waiting by the front door (would this have even worked with there being two killers?). No matter, both of these spots are wonderful and the best thing to happen at tonight’s Oscars outside of Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse winning best animated feature.
