creepy portraits of women - dove ad campaign

What do you think of these flipped portraits of women?

These (creepy) portraits are by Dutch photographer duo Blommers Schumm (Anuschka Blommers & Niels Schumm)  for a Dove ad campaign. They flipped the image vertically, but kept the eyes and mouth the right side up. Petapixel says this photographer duo used the Thatcher effect for some stealthy creepiness - our human brain has a difficult time detecting these subtle "local" changes, and the portraits may look normal until you see them flipped. Try turning your monitor upside down or try to look at the images upside down and you will know what I mean.
