Weird Mountain Dew Commercial Gives Super Bowl Viewers the Creeps

There's always a touching one, a funny one and often a raunchy one--but this year's Super Bowl had a commercial that was downright creepy.

The three-way hybrid is meant to remind its young, male target consumers that the drink is also a hybrid--an energizing cocktail of "dew," juice and caffeine.

While it may be memorable as a message for the thirsty and tired, the ad has also managed to weird a lot of people out, a sentiment echoed across social media immediately after the ad aired.

"On the lookout for the horrific #puppymonkeybaby  at #SB50," wrote one Twitter user.

Another worried, "I have a horrible feeling that #puppymonkeybaby merchandise is coming."
