People Freak Out Over Marketing Campaign That Unleashes Remote-Controlled 'Devil Baby' Loose In NYC

This Friday, Fox is releasing horror movie "Devil's Due."

If you haven't heard of it, the movie follows a newly married couple Samantha (Allison Miller) and Zach (Zach Gilford) who are expecting a child. If you've seen any of the previews, it turns out Samantha's pregnant with the Antichrist.

The film's not expected to have a stellar opening weekend. BoxOffice.com estimates the film debuting to $6 million.

To cause a stir before the film's release, a marketing team unleashed a "possessed devil baby" on unsuspecting New York City pedestrians.

The results, as expected, are pretty funny.

The video gets to be a bit much after a while as the remote-control doll started spewing liquid and flipping others off. The prank ends with a promo for the film.

We're not so sure that this will necessarily get more people in theaters as much as it will leave people interested in the prank itself.
