Review – Prey

I was reluctant to watch this movie at first because of all the animal violence described in its DoesTheDogDie entry. But I’m glad my desire to see every entry in the Predator series prompted me to see it anyway. Yes, there’s a lot of animal death in this, which isn’t particularly surprising for a movie about hunting. But the story draws distinctions between the Comanche protagonists hunting for food as part of their culture, the Predator hunting for trophies and European immigrants hunting for the love of slaughter. Set 300 years before the first episode in the set, this manages to equal and perhaps even surpass the original for storytelling quality. Worth seeing
