Prey movie

Dan Trachtenberg and Jhane Myers, the makers of Prey, the Predator prequel film talk about reviving the film franchise.

I was very intimidated by those and I wanted to really deliver because the Comanche were fierce with their weapons and I think Dakota really delivers and takes on that Predator in a very exciting way with a weapon that we've seen used plenty in movies. It's an underdog hero's journey of this one character and yet still manages to deliver what we expect a Predator movie to deliver on the kind of action that you see - the clever and excruciating depths of brutality that the Predator is able to inflict with his special set of weaponry. I think I was excited to drill into the things that I felt made the first movie tick. Dan: Well, I think the original was exciting in that "Oh my God, it's sort of like a slasher movie, except it's in this other setting with these other protagonists" and our movie is more focused on telling a David vs Goliath story in this real rivalry. I found it enjoyable to make this type of film just because of the way the characters are written, the way the film is written. Since then, the biggest stride taken in the direction of reviving the film series is the recent prequel film Prey.
