Funkytown

Watch it here!

Funkytown is yet another mediocre gore video to come out of the cartel-infested shithole of Mexico, but instead of your typical beheading or face scalping, the Zeta bois went out of their way this time to make this video just slightly more excruciatingly painful than your typical narcovideo. Even before the camera went up, it is evident that the surprise guest has already endured severe pain and torture beyond what is typical of a cartel execution; having had both his hands severed, face scalped off, eyes gouged out and a catheter rammed up his bunghole constantly injecting him with AIDS and adrenaline just to keep him conscious and alive longer for maximal pain. Within the given screen time, his torturers struggle to cut his throat with a sickle and a box cutter knife. It is considered one of the worst gore videos on the internet by those who have never seen The Power 5. If you listen past the gurgling cries and moans of agony, you might chime in on some techno/disco music playing in the background, which can make watching this video a total bop and a groove. Despite being named "Funkytown", the actual song called Funkytown only plays during the last 20 seconds of the video, almost enough to avoid a JewTube copyright strike.

Supposedly, More Than A Woman by Bees Gees, Recuerdos of Una Noche by Los Pasteles Verdes and Beat It by Michael Jackson are also audible in the video, but you watch it and tell me if you hear them; they probably played for a literal second before being changed for something more groovy.

"Scroll Down" page

In yet another act of win from Encyclopedia Dramatica, a GIF version of Funkytown was featured on the "Scroll Down" page before the video became well-known to the public receptacle and before the name "Funkytown" was attributed to it. The "Scroll Down" article was intended as a level 2 for people who completed the "Offended" page challenge, but it has since been deleted due to nondescript animal abuse content.

	“	I remembered this was in the Scroll Down page of Encyclopedia Dramatica a while ago before it was actually popular. I was actually fucked up in the mind when i first saw that.	„

Another video dubbed Funkytown soccer/Funkytown football began to circulate in 2021, which is rumored to be filmed by the same people responsible for the original or at least filmed in the same set. The video depicts some kids playing with some dead guy's heart that they visibly tore out of his chest and then kicking around his decapitated head like a soccer ball. This video is also known as Narco Playtime/Narco Soccer and also "Hi".
