A mash-up that really works. The themes present in each film really work well together. The cult(s)'s plan seems more elaborate and fleshed out than in their respective individual movies.
The strongest point, to me, is that so much fat is trimmed from each film that you're left with a much more exciting version of each. There's never a dull moment.
One minor grips is that it still sort of feels like tossing back and forth between two films. I believe absolutely everything that could be done to make them logically run parallel was done, but in a proper film it seems like the protagonists would have run into each other at some point since they seem so close at times. And the way Loomis runs back into what should be a burning building at the end didn't work for me. But again, minor gripes and the way the ending is combined was great as well.
