At what point does the promo for this revolutionary concept in personal warmth cross the line from "cheesy infomercial" to "frightening cult recruitment video"?

Around about the first group shot.

Around the time it gets to the marshmallow toasting, it has well and truly slipped into the realm of the deeply disturbing.

I saw an infomercial for those while at the dentist the other week (my annual encounter with morning television). I was mildly disturbed.

They've been playing it in prime time lately. We generally mute the audio when ads come on, but this one is hard to escape.

You need to see it a few times for the true meaning to sink in.
