Freddy Vs. Jason. Alien vs. Predator. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Even Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man. On paper, these movies sound great. If one classic character or monster is good, then two squaring off in a winner-take-all rumble should be epic. What more could you possibly want out of a grand cinematic spectacle than that?
