10.29.09 CREEPY, YET BETTER THAN JEFF DUNHAM
This is a clip from God knows when of a Hungarian TV show called “The Sandor Fridercruz Show,” if the YouTube description is to be believed. It’s a ventriloquist choir singing the Beatles’ “Yesterday,” or as I like to call it, “absolutely essential.” How did I survive for so many years without ventrilo-choirs covering the Beatles on Eastern European TV?
You’ll notice that these ventriloquists, unlike the terrible Jeff Dunham, actually don’t move their lips. This effect is necessary in making the doll in a man’s lap look even creepier. Seriously, it weirds me out. I think I’d rather watch clowns running an S&M dungeon… but I respect your mom’s privacy.

I caught about 10 seconds of Dunham while flipping through the channels last night and saw that in some of his “sketches” the puppets are doing their own thing, like not with his hand up their butts. He’s so bad that he’s pre-recording their voices.
