It takes a special kind of cocking up to create a Predator movie in the modern age that is largely regarded as the worst that the series has to offer. 2018’s The Predator looked brilliant on paper: Shane Black directing, plenty of practical effects and the film revolving around a crew of misfit soldiers as they find themselves roped into a fight with the cult classic alien hunter who has an agenda of its own this time. Instead what viewers got was absolute bollocks.
The Predator opens on a starscape of swirling gasses and pinpricks of lights that immediately reminded me of 1980s film studio Orion’s title sequence. That awesome nostalgic reverie is quickly forgotten though as two alien spaceships, sleek silvery shapes realized in shiny CGI, blast into frame noisily as they engage in an intergalactic dogfight. Watching it at the time, little did I know I had just seen a very apt summation of the discordant film to come.
The first few trailers for writer/director Shane Black's The Predator were rightfully criticized for being a little reserved in showing us the type of film we should be expecting in this revival of the classic sci-fi action franchise. But now the film's final trailer is here in all it's bloody, profanity-fueled glory and it looks incredible!
The Predator is a chance to really up the stakes and spill some blood. It’s not violence for the sake of violence, but rather a key factor in setting the mood of the film.
From the outer reaches of space to the small-town streets of suburbia, the hunt comes home in Shane Black’s explosive reinvention of the Predator series. Now, the universe’s most lethal hunters are stronger, smarter and deadlier than ever before, having genetically upgraded themselves with DNA from other species. When a young boy accidentally triggers their return to Earth, only a ragtag crew of ex-soldiers and a disgruntled science teacher can prevent the end of the human race.
A new trailer for Shane Black's The Predator has been revealed which gives us much of the upcoming sequel's story and action and our best look at the titular alien hunter yet.
Shane Black will be returning to the Predator franchise later this year, not in front of the character but behind it - and he will be bringing some new ideas to the sci-fi/action film series while also maintaining what worked the first time around.
