Ummmmm.
Hell Pizza, the Pizza brand best known for not being Pizza Hutt and Dominoes, has decided on the most bizarre marketing campaign ever and it reeks of a Wellington Woke Ad Agency decision that feels like a brewing Bud Lite moment.
Previously Hell Pizza was known for their very funny sex advertising…
Hell’s condom promo sparks most complaints ever
A promotion for a pizza company that saw about 170,000 condoms dropped in New Zealand letterboxes has now become the country’s most complained-about advertising campaign.
…but that marketing was branded too sexist because Hell Pizza was suggesting that heteronormative sex might be pleasurable (when it’s really a hate crime).
To move away from their marketing past, Hell Pizza have decided to embark upon the worst imagery in marketing history.
Pizza and menstrual blood…
Mean Drawers, awesome cause.
Purchase a pair of Endo Undies and every dollar will be donated to Endo Warriors Aotearoa. Help us raise $66,666 for Endo Warriors Aotearoa and all the kiwis suffering from Endometriosis.
…I’m not sure who the niche market for menstrual blood and pizzas is, vampires?
It’s not good enough of course to have any old menstrual blood these days, it has to be trans friendly menstrual blood hence the inclusion of the bearded and moustached.
Hell Pizza will argue that they are being ‘inclusive’, but I just want pizza without having to think about menstrual blood as a topping.
With the Bud Lite backlash and the 2 Degrees, Spark, Vodaphone backlash, it seems an odd time to allow Wellington Woke Ad Agencies to destroy your brand!
I’ve seen some odd combos in my time, Deadpool and Wolverine, anchovies and pineapple, hell even me and Damien on The Working Group, but menstrual blood and pizza may well be the oddest.
Can we just get back to greasy pizza that was slightly better than Dominoes and Pizza Hutt?
Why did anyone at the Wellington Woke Ad Agency think this imagery was a winner for Hell Pizza?
Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.

It’s not woke it’s designed to shock.
Lefties just don’t get the whole woke thing do they.
Notice in Hells picture we have a lot of diversity:
asian “woman” (I don’t want to assume)
Brown woman (ditto)
trans thing (ditto)
white woman. (ummm)
ah but no white straight male.
Pretty much sums up what they think diversity is lmao
Genuine C The white straight males have mainly shot through to Australia, the Outer Hebrides, and Mongolia, to escape the wrath of Marama and the Ball Haters. The straight white females are running out of places to hide too, after Albert Park, as are non-straight women, and just about everybody’s old grandmothers.
Maybe “real” men don’t eat pizza!
Gary Peters. Pretty sure that pizza originated in Sicily, and Italian men are real men. Trust me on this. The original pizzas had a much lighter pastry -type base though, lots of lovely Italian tomatoes, wild herbs, and not the splodgy scone-type base which makes up the bulk of pizzas Kiwi style, which students order when they’re too drunk or too plain whacked to cook.
However if your hypothesis is correct, maybe Bill English was never a real sort of man.
the asian person is non binary or trans masc – see binder
the blond person in the middle might be a ‘lesbian’ or a ‘non binary’ or a ‘cis ally’ or ‘body positivity’
the two to the left are ‘lesbians’ or non binary or ‘trans masc’+’lesbian’ couple larping a heterosexual relationship cause being just lesbian is hard hard work.
the two on the right might just be nothing at all cause really being called a women – human female is just so upsetting.
All of them female. All of them bleeders, menstruators, in saying that some might consider their vagina bonus holes, or front holers. Its all just quite sad, all of them not wanting to be ‘women’. And whom can blame them, we are making women the worst thing anyone can be born into it.
As for blood and pizza, you would be surprised how much food and blood is a fetish. And this is what this is about, normalizing other people fetishes and involving the rest of us, as otherwise that shit would not be normal.
Our Hells Pizza here in town is so shite i can’t see many giving them money. Right across from them is an independent pizza flinger and they are way more delicious and affordable. Would not know how woke they are too, cause they don’t speak about such things.
Reactionary B If all these Hell models are all women, then the caption, ‘Fight Like Hell,’ is also disparaging to women.
Women are not generally the fighters, and this was well evidenced at Albert Park. Females have culturally and traditionally been the life givers and the nurturers, with males being the fighters, and as seen at Albert Park, transgendered persons in frocks and wigs from whom biological women had to flee. Women will above all fight for their children, and sometimes for their and their daughters private personal spaces, but not for crappy old pizzas.
These are the trend setters of their generation.
In the same way you are Bomber!
Some “trends” need to go away back to tik tok.
anyone who cares about this needs a hobby away from a keyboard
Barking mad for sure. No taste. Not tasty at all.
Grey Warbler It’s pretty gross, but be thankful it’s only just happened or woman-silencer Hipkins could have been taking menstruating women pizzas to the Coronation instead of bloody – oops- sausage rolls. This is could be excruciatingly hellish for so many adolescent girls but the gender extremists won’t care.
“did anyone at the Wellington Woke Ad Agency think”
There’s an oxymoron if ever I saw one!
Who’s the target market here?
Joseph The sort of persons who want to encroach into women’s private places.
Spark supported suppression of free speech to silence one side of an important debate.
This is just Hell Pizza being Hell Pizza.
Would religous groups be a big part of their customer base anyway with a name like Hell?
I’m certainly enjoying my tasty & free vegetarian pizza from Hell for lunch today, fresh out of the oven & delicious. Thanks Hell.
Enjoy!!!
What will Satan say?
LAL! Laugh Aloud Loud, not that other Lal character who just bought 1million shares in Hell. based on that poster. Good luck with that.
Kraut He can probably afford to buy Hell’s shares with whatever the New Zealand Education Department is paying him to advise them on sex education. That’s your tax dollars, Cabbage, and mine, so personcott them pronto.
What would you possibly expect from a bunch of uni educated millennial Creative directors.
Men don’t suffer from endometreous, so I am not sure why they are in the add. OH! They are trans women. I see now! We can’t let them feel left out it might hurt their feelings any suggestion that they don’t have wombs.
Its bloody insulting to women.
Anker 100%. “ It’s bloody insulting to women”.
they are all female – self Identifying queer females.
Go woke Go broke.
In some bizarre coincidence my 2 favorite pizzas is a anchovy and pineapple.
Peter B. Could be worse. Could be a Bill English sort of pizza. Anchovies are beautiful in their own way. Anchovy toast is better than anchovy pizza, and cheaper. Try it, and and put these offensive cooksters out of business. Anchovy sauce can be even cheaper, and used in many different ways. Transform a fish pie into something more gourmet than any pizza from Hell could ever be. Try it.
It’s definitely a trip to A&E after you eat it if that’s what you’re meant to do with it, or to it or whatever?!
