Predator Is Amazing! And Every Sequel Sucks!

It's difficult to overstate the sheer awesomeness of the original Predator (1987). It's just about the perfect action movie, and it's a blending of sci-fi, action, and horror that is extremely rare in all of movie history, not to mention a lightning-in-a-bottle cast that could only work in the late 1980s. So why has every single sequel (yeah, Dave's looking at you, too, Prey) sucked so bad?! We take a deep dive into Predator, as well as Predator 2, Predators, The Predator, Prey, and we gloss over the two AVP movies, as is deserved. Let's go!

Stay tuned at the end for Tom's artistic reinterpretation of the score from Predator (1987).
