The new horror comedy from Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant, entitled Hell Baby, is getting ready to hit both DVD and Blu-ray just in time for the new year, and we’ve got all the details you need to decide if you wanna babysit this scary little scamp.
From the Press Release
The moment Jack (Rob Corddry) and his pregnant wife, Vanessa (Leslie Bibb), move into their ramshackle New Orleans starter home, they realize something isn’t right. First an overly friendly guy living in the crawlspace (Keegan Michael Key) informs them the house has been the scene of multiple murders. Then a naked old lady appears out of nowhere and sexually assaults a confused Jack—who fights her off, apparently killing her.
Soon Vanessa starts exhibiting odd behaviors: smoking, drinking paint thinner, and occasionally speaking in a deep, guttural voice. But even after her new therapist is found crucified in his office, no one suspects that the thing growing in Vanessa’s belly may have something to do with the house’s dark legacy—or the increasing chaos around them.
When a pair of inept detectives (Rob Huebel and Paul Scheer) fail to solve the mystery, it falls to two seasoned exorcists dispatched by the Vatican (Robert Ben Garant and Thomas Lennon). But even these hardnosed priest-enforcers aren’t prepared for the mayhem that lies in store as Vanessa’s due date arrives.
Written and directed by Thomas Lennon (“Sean Saves the World”, Night at the Museum, Reno 911!: Miami) and Ben Garant (“Reno 911!”, Night at the Museum, Reno 911!: Miami) HELL BABY marks the comedy duo’s co-directing debut. HELL BABY stars Leslie Bibb (Iron Man 2, Movie 43), Rob Corddry (The Way Way Back, Pain & Gain), Michael Ian Black (This is 40, “Reno 911!”), Riki Lindhome (Million Dollar Baby, HBO’s “Enlightened”) Paul Scheer (FX’s “The League,” Bride Wars), and Rob Huebel (The Descendants, Celeste & Jesse Forever).
Look for it in stores on December 31st.
