There seems to be a new genre of horror philms where one bad guy is pitted against another...i.e. Freddy vs Jason, and Alien vs Predator. I was thinking this could be a new spin for the Tall Man. My idea is Tall Man vs The Terminator. But there are countless other combinations. Phans....what do you think? The Tall Man vs...

Personally, I think a Tall Man vs anyone movie would be terrible. Not trying to insult your idea, man... it's just that I'd hate to see the Phantasm universe mixed with any other universe. It just wouldn't make sense in any way.

P.S. and in Hollywood, I don't think they really care which universes they mix ( is this a hidden joke, I think so). Just as long as they make $

I sort of agree with Gopher in the way that the Phantasm universe is one all it's own (A neverending struggle against a persistant force bent on world domination interferes in any canon). However, I think two would work quite well.
Phantasm vs. Dr. Who Phantasm vs. hellraiser
The former choice obviously has the protagonist hopping across not only time but dimensions as well. The Doctor could try to stop the tall man from "expanding" his plague into other worlds. Of course, this isn't a likely crossover considering Dr. who is a well-known British TV show and Phantasm is a low-budget American film series.
The latter would be interesting, as not only is Pinhead probably the one horror foe who could stand up to the tall man, but also has a similar goal (hell on earth) and a vastly differing backstory. If "Hollywood" actually goes in depth contrasting religion and technology then it could be one of the most interesting horror films ever.

I don't think it would be wise for anyone to make a "Tall Man vs. ...." film. I'm not even thinking about anyone who he could fight, because I know he'll kick their asses!

No one could beat the Tall Man ( cept Reggie) he'd just get blown up or torched and have another of himself come right back through the Demensional Fork and eventually wear whoever he was fighting out.

only thing i could think of is a possible scene say with The Tall Man versus a Tall Man Mike. now that would have to fit into the story but be just a climactic part perhaps but not the whole movie.

The Tall Man vs. Bennett Bennett has special mutant powers, everyone knows that. He absorbs electricity and converts it into physical strength.
