Japanese Artist’s ‘Pacific Rim’ x ‘Godzilla’ Mashup is the Movie We Want to See

Published

on

Legendary is the studio behind the Pacific Rim franchise as well as the new versions of King Kong and Godzilla, leading to recent rumors that the three worlds could someday collide up on the big screen. We already know that Kong and Godzilla will be doing battle come 2020, so it’s not impossible to imagine Jaegers being brought into the mix.

In fact, Pacific Rim Uprising director Steven S. DeKnight recently noted that Pacific Rim eventually crossing over into Legendary’s MonsterVerse has been discussed!

There’s been a lot of discussion about that possibility [of crossing over],” DeKnight noted last year. “Look I think it would be fantastic to have the Pacific Rim universe join Legendary’s Monster Universe… it seems like a natural step. And part of the big overall plan after the third movie we’ve talked about is that could happen, it’s always a possibility. It’s by far not a certainty; it’s merely theoretical at this point, but as a fan myself I would love to see that happen.”

Imagining such a mashup, Hidetaka Tenjin has taken it upon himself to combine the worlds of Godzilla and Pacific Rim for a pretty epic crossover poster, which you’ll find below. The mashup art celebrates the releases of both Pacific Rim Uprising (April 13 in Japan) and the new animated film Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle (May 18).

‘Dead Mail’ Exclusive Images: SXSW Horror Movie Begins With a Blood-Stained Postal Box Delivery

Dead Mail SXSW Dead Mail interview

One of the genre films we’re looking forward to checking out at SXSW this year is Dead Mail, written and directed by Joe DeBoer and Kyle McConaghy and premiering on March 9.

Meagan Navarro will be reviewing Dead Mail for Bloody Disgusting as part of her SXSW coverage, and she writes in her preview for the upcoming fest: “Dead Mail leans heavily into the ’80s analog aesthetic, delivering a unique crime thriller unafraid to get offbeat with its dark narrative. Expect its characters to be as atypical as Dead Mail‘s sense of style.”

In the SXSW 2024 horror film…

“On a desolate, Midwestern county road, a bound man crawls towards a remote postal box, managing to slide a blood-stained plea-for-help message into the slot before a panicking figure closes in behind him. The note makes its way to the county post office and onto the desk of Jasper, a seasoned and skilled “dead letter” investigator, responsible for investigating lost mail and returning it to its sender. As he investigates further, Jasper meets Trent, a strange yet unassuming man who has taken up residence at the men’s home where Jasper lives.

“When Trent unexpectedly shows up at Jasper’s office, it becomes clear he has a vested interest in the note, and will stop at nothing to retrieve it…”

Sterling Macer, Jr., John Fleck, Susan Priver, Micki Jackson, Tomas Boykin, and Nick Heyman star in Dead Mail. Preview the film with an exclusive image gallery below.
