Creepiest. Babies. Ever.

Prepare yourself for the weirdest, freakiest babies you’ve ever seen. Note their expressionless faces, their soulless eyes. Note their uncanny ability to sing like old pros while still unable to speak intelligibly. This is the devil’s handiwork, I tell you. We’re still asking why? Why did our eyes have to see this?

Okay, okay, I confess. The freakishly talented Stepford Babies are the result of some seriously low-tech trickery. They came to us on a benign looking videotape called Singing Babies, given to my son by a friend. We like to put it on for company and pretend there’s nothing unusual about it.

    Wow, Izzy, that is some scary stuff right there. I’ve watched a lot of crappy kid stuff in my day (Doodlebops, anyone?)…but I think those babies take the cake.

    Weird. And that one blonde baby has freakishly large eyes. You don’t think her eyes are really that big, do you? Or is because their mouths are so oddly small?

    Ick. Reminds of Anime, which, BTW, my daughter loves. Ick.

    Wow - that is seriously disturbing.
    There is a local realtor who does low-budget ads where his children sing his jingle off-key, using that same technology. Ay-yi-yi… heebie-jeebies!

    when those babies come for me in my nightmares tonight, I will blame you Izzy, I will blame you (omg singing souless babies get outta my head!).

    honestly - freakin’ funny in all it’s weirdness

    Ewwww. Completely creepy.

  8. By FishyGirl on Jan 20, 2008

    Great, so now I have to add singing soulless babies to my list of recurring nightmares. Chucky and the guy with the ski mask and hooded sweatshirt who chase me all the time while I try to scream will be glad for the company.

    Oh. My. Creepy!

    You know what would even be better? Is if they used a man with a beard for one of the creepy kids’ mouths. A baby with a beard would definitely take the creepy factor up a notch or two.

    definite nightmare material here.

  11. By Aimee Greeblemonkey on Jan 20, 2008

    I would be *accidentally* stepping on it. OOPS! The DVD is broken, sorry babes!!!!

  12. By Dana on Jan 20, 2008

    I can’t get the video to play, but I’ll take your word for it, being creepy.

    Oh. I do not like that at all.

  15. By Jenn on Jan 20, 2008

    That is seriously messed up. I am a little scared. Though, I am pretty sure I have seen one or two of those Stepford babies in the area.

  16. By Susiej on Jan 20, 2008

    Hmmm. That’s kind of freaky — and for some strange reason I find myself wanting to watch it again…

  17. By The Other Elle on Jan 21, 2008

    Wish I had waited until daylight to watch that.
    Eeeeeuuuuwwww.

  18. By motherofbun on Jan 21, 2008

    OH MY GAWD. Wierd! But really funny.

  19. By Liana on Jan 21, 2008

    Creeeepy. I’m not sure if I’m chilly because my office isn’t heated well or because I just watched that video. SO badly done….would any small child NOT be freaked out by this?? Eek!

  20. By Pamela Kramer on Jan 21, 2008

    Thank you for the disturbance! LOL

  21. By Kristina Brooke on Jan 21, 2008

    Um, remember Chucky? Or how about those singing mice from the Quiznos Commercials? I’m afraid.

    Must. Look. Away.

    Must. Take. More. Meds.

  23. By the mama bird diaries on Jan 21, 2008

    Ok now I’m pissed. My baby auditioned for that Singing Babies video and I can’t believe she got passed up for those creepy kids. Where is the justice?! Yes. Kidding. Seriously. I am.

  27. By Major Bedhead on Jan 22, 2008

    And I thought Backyardigans was weird, with its CGI weirdness. That’s full-on freaky, man.

  30. By Pattie on Jan 24, 2008

    Ummm..I don’t know what to say. I am off to try to recover from the horror of it all *LOL*

  31. By Mom101 on Jan 24, 2008

    These are the people we always fear will solicit Cool Mom Picks and then we have to find a polite way to say “OH MY GOD NO NEVER NOT ON YOUR LIFE!!”

    Just you wait…you’re going to start getting them on your site soon. Heh.

  32. By SarahO on Jan 24, 2008

    I LOVE IT! If you see only one creepy kid video this year, make it Singing (Stepford) Babies.

  33. By the weirdgirl on Jan 25, 2008

    That is seriously f’ed-up! I HAVE to show it to my friend who is about to become a first time mom. She’ll love it. (Poor sick woman.)
