The creators of Reno 911 are back. This time around, they’re taking on a whole new genre.

Hell Baby is a new horror-comedy that follows an expectant couple’s moves into the most haunted fixer-upper in New Orleans — a house with a deadly demonic curse. Obviously, weird things start happening, including the possession of the couple’s female member… and the unborn baby inside her.

It sounds silly, but it looks hilarious. If Reno 911 is any indication, the team behind Hell Baby knows exactly what they’re doing. Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think! Hell Baby hits iTunes on July 25th!

“Hell Baby,” a comedy scripted by Thomas Lennon and Robert Ben Garant (Night at The Museum, Reno 911!: Miami) marks their co-directing debut. Jack (Rob Corddry) and Vanessa (Leslie Bibb) are an expectant couple that moves into the most haunted fixer-upper in New Orleans — a house with a deadly demonic curse. Things soon spiral out of control for Jack and Vanessa, as well as their-not-so-helpful neighbor F’Resnel (Keegan-Michael Key), Vanessa’s friendly psychiatrist (Michael Ian Black), Vanessa’s Wiccan sister Marjorie (Riki Lindhome) and the detectives assigned to look into the rising body count (Rob Huebel and Paul Scheer). Only the Vatican’s elite exorcism team (Garant and Lennon) san save them — or can they?

The team that brought us the hilarious Reno 911 is working on a new film. A horror comedy about an expecting couple that get themselves in a hellish situation.

Paramount is still attempting develop a feature film based on the popular series Baywatch, you know the one where they ran on the beach in slow motion all the damn time, and it appears they’ve brought someone new in to give the project life again. Screenwriter Peter Tolan (Rescue Me) was previously tapped to write the script, and it was revealed that his take would be a comedy adaptation which is probably going to be similar to what we got with the quite hilarious 21 Jump Street.

And that’s fine being that a serious Baywatch movie would be a disaster. Vulture reports that Reno 911! co-creator and star Robert Ben Garant will be directing the film. Garant previously directed the films Reno 911! Miami and Balls Of Fury. There is no word whether or not Garant would be touching up on the script but we can definitely assume he’s going to be. This could actually turn out to be reallly funny if done right. And they better have a damn Hasselhoff cameo.
