Predator prequel — that’s fun to say out loud — hit Hulu on Friday (and Disney Plus Star outside the US), bringing the iconic sci-fi series back to 1719. It sees one of the alien hunters going up against tribespeople like Naru (), and it’s absolutely excellent.
“This is easily the best Predator movie we’ve had since the original, with a well-developed protagonist (and her excellent dog), a rich cultural basis and clever use of an iconic movie monster,” I wrote in .
It builds to a memorable finale, hints at what happened afterward in its beautiful animated credits sequences and Top News includes an awesome reference to 1990’s .Let’s dive in — but be warned: This stuff will make you a SPOILER Tyrannosaurus, World News just like me.
We can kill it
Having seen her fellow Comanche Nation warriors and the deeply unpleasant French poachers slaughtered by the Predator, Naru lures the beast into a trap in the dark forest.
