Sick of Christmas? Well, the trailer for Frankenstein vs. The Mummy should help get "Jingle Bell Rock" out of your head once and for all...
I don't know what Universal has in store for their "shared monster cinematic universe" or whatever it is they're going to call it, but I do know this: it's going to take ages for them to even consider doing something as bonkers as this trailer for Frankenstein vs. The Mummy looks. I mean, that's the whole point of these "shared cinematic universes" right? Please, God...don't let me have to type "shared cinematic universe" again in this article.
Think of Frankenstein vs. The Mummy like Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Why wait to establish your SCU (tm) with a series of standalone movies for your heroes and/or monsters when you can just kick things off with a throwdown that gets right to what everybody wants to see in the first place?
Watch the trailer for Frankenstein vs. The Mummy, which delivers exactly what the title says, right here:
Frankenstein vs. The Mummy comes from All Hallow's Eve director Damien Leone. Here's the official synopsis, in case the title didn't clue you in:
“The mummy of a cursed pharaoh and a reanimated corpse who terrorize a medical university. Only an Egyptologist and a college professor, the deranged Dr. Frankenstein, may be able to stop the creatures before it’s too late.”
Thanks to Horror Society for bringing this to my attention.
Mike Cecchini is legit more excited about this than Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. Follow him on Twitter.
