Find Slack in this SubGenius TV commercial from MTV (1991)

In 1991, MTV, back when it was edgy and relevant, commissioned Rev. Ivan Stang of The Church of the SubGenius -- the religion, disguised as a joke (or is it a joke disguised as a religion?) -- to make a television spot as part of the network's fantastic Art Break series of short films.

"Mark Mothersbaugh of DEVO did the music and the miniatures and masks were created by the late St. Joe Riley," Stang writes. Above is that video. Below is a documentary that Stang edited into a souvenir for the cast and crew. Praise Bob!
