Noted safety expert William Shatner has teamed up with good neighbour State Farm Insurance to take up the annual tradition of warning Americans about the dangers of deep-fried turkey, just in time for next week’s U.S. Thanksgiving. This time around, they decided to go quasi–Terrence Malick, complete with portentous orchestral music, slow-panning shots and Shatner intoning as only Shatner can: “Fire, metal, oil and turkey are glorious when in harmony, but their power is unrelenting in careless hands.” Oh, and there are also some cheesy flame effects.
