One of the billboards can be seen on a roadside in Brisbane, where residents (and their kids) are reportedly none too pleased to look up and see a huge, smiling Pennywise staring devilishly down at them.

“It just totally freaks them out.”
Another mother actually filed a complaint, arguing that advertising for movies with an MA15+ rating (which this movie has) should be restricted in some places.
One could argue that children feeling scared about a horror movie means the film's marketing team has done an outstanding job.
