Teensy alien-looking skeleton from Chile poses a medical mystery

The biologist P. Z. Meyers argues that the skeleton is clearly that of a fetus. Quote: "It’s 6 inches long, which would make it a fetus around 20 weeks postconception; assuming a fair amount of shrinkage during dessication, I could guess as late as 6-7 months. The pattern of bone ossification -- notice, no sternum -- fits that as well, but it doesn’t fit a 6 year old at all." (from http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/2013/04/25/id-watch-i...)

I don't think it's a hoax -- just a real discovery to which some ridiculous claims have become unfortunately attached.

Here's a link to the trailer Sirius which stars this "alien", https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeZuYO-bNfY

Also he's allegedly got some kind of free energy system in the movie.

Is it safe to assume NBC is being punked by this? I've seen this story roaming about the Interwebs and have assumed that it was a hoax.
