Predator: Badlands

2025 • Dir. Dan Trachtenberg • Cast: Elle Fanning, Dimitrius Schuster-Koloamatangi

A bold and fresh evolution of the Predator franchise. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg (who brought us the excellent Prey), Badlands shifts the perspective in a way we've never seen before: making the Predator the protagonist.

The story follows Dek, a young Yautja outcast trying to prove his worth on a hostile planet, forming an unlikely alliance with a damaged android named Thia. It's a cinematic hunt that explores Yautja culture far more deeply than any previous installment.

My Rating 9 / 10
