Why aren't there more horror crossover movies?
Chucky vs Puppet Master
Leprechaun vs Wishmaster
Leatherface and his WV cousins go on a vacation and get lost aka Leatherface takes a Wrong Turn at The Hills Have Eyes
The ideas write themselves.
>>
I think it's basically because most of the characters aren't owned by the same company and they don't want to share the profits.
>>
Puppet Master vs Demonic Toys exist.
>>
>>85149373
Make money but have to share some of it or don't make money.
>>
>>85149324
>Leatherface and his WV cousins

It's literally called "The TEXAS Chainsaw Massacre"
>>
>>85149779
Do you not have any family members who live in other states?
>>
>>85149373
This.

Companies are usually very hesitant to collaborate on projects with competing companies.

That's why we will never EVER see any movie or video game having to do with Marvel heroes meeting DC heroes.
>>
>>85149818
>making up characters
what are you talking about?
>>
>>85149373
/pol/ is always right I guess
>>
I've not seen this movie, or any of them really, but isn't there a complete mismatch in the abilities of Freddy and Jason?

One is a dream based murder clown and the other is an immortal giant from what I can gather. Isn't Jason entirely OP?
>>
>>85149373
Yep

We only got Freddy vs Jason because New Line finally had the rights to both characters

There was talk of doing a Freddy/Jason movie featuring Ash from Evil Dead and Pinhead from Hellraiser but those two characters are owned by other studios
>>
>>85149324
I want Terminator vs Pinhead
>>
>>85149944
Yeah, it sucks. Could have had some fun times.
>>
>>85149873
So you believe Leatherface couldn't have any family members in other states because they haven't shown up in any of the past movies, despite the fact that new family members show up in every single movie?

Also

>Wrong Turn

>>

I would kill to have Hitman-Splinter Cell crossover
>>
>>85149931
The movie favored Freddy so when they fought in the dream realm Freddy was able to almost kill him by drowning him, despite the fact that Jason has spent decades underwater without it bothering him. Then when Freddy gets summoned to the real world he bobs and weaves around all of Jasons strikes while stabbing him and then lures Jason to a construction site and the movie turns into a Looney Tunes cartoon.
>>
I want a Pumpkinhead/Friday the 13th crossover.
>>
>>85150272
I'm still disappointed Freddy didn't get more kills. They gave Jason all the fun stuff.

>>85150381
Freddy steals souls, Jason kills. Its not even a real contest.

I know, I'm just more of an Elm Street fan. I still enjoy the movie though. Aside from the shitty cg Freddypillar.

Even though the studio execs would consider it dull, the real fight is Jason vs Michael, who is the evilest incarnation of evil.
Minimal dialogue.

Would watch that in a heartbeat just for the title alone.

>>85150381
The most people Freddy has ever killed is about a dozen in his second movie. In every other movie he only kills 3 to 6.

Jason in his first appearance killed 9, 12 in part 3, 14 in part 4 and in every movie since part 6 he's killed 16 to 23 people. there are single Friday the 13th movies where Jason kills half of the number of people Freddy has killed in every one of his movies.
>>
>>85151070
Sure, it's just, as I recall, Freddy only killed one person in FvJ. I suppose he did have an influence on some of Jason's kills though, to be fair. Like I said, I have a bias.
>>
>>85150651
Jason isn't evil. After he almost drowned he spent like 20 years living innawoods not bothering anybody and only started killing because he saw him mom get beheaded in front of him, and even after that he's perfectly willing to live in peace and not bother anybody. The problem is fucktards keep coming to the camp where over a hundred people have been killed. Also he doesn't kill dogs or kids.

Michael on the other hand killed his sister at a very young age and wants to kill the rest of his family and anyone who gets in his way. He's killed dogs and tried to kill a kid.
>>

comfy movie

Didn't Jason try to kill Tommy when he was a kid?

>>85151475
No. Tommy even distracted Jason and Jason didn't try to kill him.
>>
>>85149324
Fuck i love this movie. This stupid fucking faggot on letterbox said it was bad and no one should watch it when it's literally the best film in both respective franchises.
>>
>>85151450
Name a Puppet Master movie that isn't comfy.
>>
>>85151582
I really can't agree with you there, but it's definitely fun as fuck.
>>
>>85149324
I'm still astounded as to how we're living in the last years of cinematic universes and New Line hasn't bought all the slasher villains (they're prolly cheap as fuck, Chucky sequels are coming straight to fucking Blu-Ray), or at least bought some to start with, like Halloween for the Jason vs MM movie, or at least the rights to the Evil Dead to finally do the thing.
>>
>>85152359
Pinhead was supposed to cameo at the end of FvJ but they couldn't get the rights.
>>
>>85152359
New Line merged into Warner Bros and they forced Bob Shaye out (CEO of New Line and massive horror fan)
He's also the guy who said yes to LOTR and said it should be three films instead of the two originally planned
Basically Bob is based and would've probably bought up the rights to the other slashers but he's out of the game now and New Line is just another boring corporation

http://bloody-disgusting.com/news/3316014/chucky-vs-annabelle-dream-childs-play-creator/
>The creator of Child’s Play, and director of both Seed of Chucky and Curse of Chucky, dreams of a horror battle in the vein of Freddy vs Jason (a monster success for New Line Cinema in 2003).

>This past weekend, Annabelle, the haunted doll film that was spun off from The Conjuring, nearly won box office gold, but still opened huge for an R-rated genre film.

>Mancini talked to USA Today about the dream of pitting Chucky, from the Child’s Play films, against the Annabelle doll.

>“I am hoping that at some future point we have Annabelle and Chucky team up,” says Mancini. “I can see that (even) in 20 years from now.”

>There might even be a cameo for Annabelle in the seventh Child’s Play film, which Mancini is writing now.

>“We would be into it, the only problem is that we are in different studios. That would probably be years worth of red tape to work it out,” says Mancini. “But if it all could be worked out, then yes, we’re very into it.”

>There is even a power connection. Explains the site, Annabelle director John Leonetti was the director of photography for 1991’s Child’s Play 3.

I would actually watch this if it happened.

Leprechaun vs Jason vs Pinhead In Space

Short answer: jews.

Longer answer is that studios are fucking greedy and will refuse to be fair about merchandise money and shit.
>>
Shocker vs Fallen
>>
>>85149373
People don't like to share money between properties. There's a higher profit margin by releasing their own character in a shite movie, and making a crossover that ends up being a hit.

>>85149324

Some horror crossovers were almost made after Freddy vs. Jason. Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash, Freddy vs. Jason vs. Pinhead, Pinhead vs. Michael Myers, Pinhead vs. Candyman and Candyman vs. Leprechaun (yes) all almost happened. The problem (aside from copyright) is that there isn't much of a reason for these characters to crossover. How the fuck they envisioned Pinhead/Michael, I don't know.

The best you can get is Terrordrome and Mortal Kombat X, if you want to see any crossovers. Some guy on YouTube has a few fan-made fights, too, but they're whatever.
>>
>>85153961
Yeah, plus, at this point, I have to wonder how much of an audience there is for a crossover. There aren't really any big modern horror franchises outside of Saw at this point. I remember talking about all the 80s slashers (that we hadn't even seen yet) with my friends when we were in middle school, but that was 15 years ago. I don't know if they have the same appeal anymore.
>>
maybe crossover kino will be the new trend after capeshit dies out. godzilla vs king kong comes out soon, maybe thatll do something.
>>
>>85153716

Studios won't do it unless they own both characters. Dimension own both Hellraiser and Scream. So unless people want to see that, I don't think we'll see another slasher crossover again.

Are any of the Puppet Master movies actually good? I've only seen clips from later movies.

>>85154495
No. They're all bad. People just liked how the puppets in the sequels looked. They stopped being horror altogether with the third one.
>>
>>85154495
>Are any of the Puppet Master movies actually good?
They're b-movie style camp. They have their charm.

>>85154663
Maybe I should've asked if there are some in particular that you have fun watching. Charles Band makes goofy shit, so I don't expect them to be scary.

>I'm down with camp. Which ones would you recommend?
If you got the time, watch them all from the beginning.

I think there was a Puppet Master collection released recently on DVD. Rather cheap as well.

Just be warned they're low budget indy flicks and they'll show that off. Especially in the earlier ones. lol

That's what people said before Amalgam comics became a thing.

That's all of Full Moon.

They're an endearing Horror studio.

How was that Grudge vs Ring movie?

Well we got Sadako vs Kayako last year which was The Ring vs The Grudge (ju-on)
>>
>>85154124
Michael Myers has a magic family curse that turned him into a monster. Pinhead was some guy who fucked around with magic and turned into a monster.

How hard is it to tie those two concepts together and create a crossover? Maybe the Cenobites find out about Michael and try to recruit him but his magic fucks with their magic and everything goes to shit.

Fuck that "movie."

>>85149324

Bruce Campbell says it's basically because of lawyers.

Each IP holder and their legal team wants to make absolutely sure that "their" character either wins or doesn't lose because they don't want to look worse than the other one because it will "degrade their brand" or whatever.

This is why we never got a Freddy vs Jason vs Ash, and it's the reason why literally every crossover either ends in a tie or ends with one franchise looking like the winner but surprise in the last ten seconds they're not.
