I feel I have to defend "Freddy vs. Jason". This movie was one of the first to actually give us what was promised. At that time, and now as well when you think about it, when 2 bad guys fought and you introduce a group of young people in the mix, they would end up fighting off both when the bad guys team up, or one of the two combatants would team up with them to take down the bigger threat (see AVP). Not this one. Freddy and Jason went at it tooth and nail. If someone else got in the mix, they were casually killed and then the main fight resumed for the most part. I loved that about the film and I don't think it gets credit for not pulling a fast one with the audience.

@Ceares5 ай бұрын
Actually, I thought it was a pretty clever premise and the battle between them did indeed satisfy but unfortunately it seems like they tried to cast the worst actors possible in the human roles. Obvs no one is expecting Oscar caliber acting but most horror films with a decent budget also have decent acting. After all, we are supposed to care about the victims and that's much harder to do when you're busy rolling your eyes.

When Adrien Brody got the Predators part, he was lean from doing stage and musicals, so he asked "how many months" he had to "bulk up". The answer? "We start filming next week..." So he instead LOST weight during filming so what muscles he already had would show better. And ironically wound up looking more like a real life elite forces soldier than anyone in the '87 classic.
