Horror crossovers have been done before, and some have emerged as masterful strokes of genius from the filmmaker gods. However, this article is not about that. Instead, think of two horror stories that have no business being together or even in the same world. How would that crossover look?
Lake Placid vs. Anaconda (2015) pitted two reptiles against each other, both of which were of enormous size and had fans taking sides on which one would win, the snake or its crocodile-like foe. Alien vs. Predator (2004) brought otherworldly creatures together to battle it out between them. Freddy vs. Jason (2003) was what slasher stans had been waiting for, it because those two guys knew how to frighten viewers out of their socks.
See the theme there? In each of these movies, it was a similar beast that would reasonably be matched up in the same way Dana White matches up opponents in the UFC. They had a reason to be in those movies together.
However, a recent Reddit thread challenged fans to think about horror mismatches. The result might lead to a comedy/horror but the weirder the better. And go!
