“The Sitter” Has Been Getting Some Hilarious Voicemail! Caleb Hamilton, September 15, 2011 Earlier this week, we reported the start of a viral campaign for 20th Century Fox’s upcoming release The Sitter, starring Jonah Hill in the title role. Allied-THA distributed flyers with Jonah’s picture and a phone number to call with the message “Need a sitter?” Since the initial report, thousands of people have been calling Jonah looking for a sitter. While they didn’t have the luck of actually speaking with Jonah, some have had the privilege of having the voicemails they left featured on the film’s Facebook page. Listen to a few after the jump!We’ve got a few of the voicemails that callers have left and you can check them out below!This dad called because “the sitter” came “…highly recommended…” It sounds like this kid was tricked as well, but by his parents!
