Predator (DVD)Click here for VHS
Sent to eliminate a gun running camp in Central America, United States Major Dutch Schaeffer and his commandos get more than they bargain for when they cross paths with a mysterious assassin.
As members of their unit begin to disappear, Dutch, Dillon (Carl Weathers), Blain (Jesse Ventura) conclude that whatever is hunting them is not of this earth. Every attempt at a tactical defense is a defeated for Dutch and company and it is only in the end stretch of their race to safety that they’re suspicions are confirmed and they encounter the alien nimrod face to face.
A summer box office smash, 1987’s PREDATOR re-ignited an old trend of movies depicting aliens invading earth (it began decades earlier with films like WAR OF THE WORLDS and INVADERS FROM MARS). McTiernan does a miraculous job of directing the "invisible" Predator. Furthermore, the special effects which are both stunning subtle, never boisterous, make PREDATOR a contemporary sci-fi even amongst today’s techno thrillers.
