Why is crap like this even allowed to be made?

It won't make money anyway.

It actually makes everyone money, that is why it is made. It is based on tricking stupid dads and moms at the store.

The problem isn't that it is made, the problem is that big supermarket franchises and whatnot buy these for the reason mentioned above: tricking people into thining it is quality or that actual Alien or Predator movie.
If I cared enough, I would write an open letter to a newspaper or something about it.

Are you crazy!? With both the Alien and Predator franchises behind it? Worldwide - 1 billion is my box office prediction.

[–] [deleted] 5 years ago

are they behind it?
Or are these people just getting close enough to the name to make you think that?

cos once you take the "vs" out, you have a very generic title that probly cant be copy protected that well.

I'm guessing Alien and Predator franchises are not really affiliated with this. This seems like one of those Sy-Fy channel low budget knock-offs of an established brand.

Yeah. No chance is this linked to the legit franchises. This is basically a complete rip off of Predator. Just with more than one alien it looks like.

Some of these mockbusters are so bad they're good, see Crocodile Jones: The Son of Indiana Dundee ⤵
