Hunting Long Pigs

Predators is a fat slice of scifi action that's a definite improvement on the awful AvP movies. Our gang of deadly protagonists are literally dropped from the sky into a jungle hell swarming with Predators looking for trophies and it doesn't take long before blood starts flowing. Sure it's a bit weird having Adrian Brody as an action lead and some of the nods to the earlier films are a little forced but all in all this is 90 mins of unashamed genre cinema. Don't watch with brain attached.

Without Warning is a cheap little horror from the 80's that's often cited as the basis of the original Predator film. A redneck town is being terrorised by a murderous alien who hunts locals with strange fleshy frisbees and strings up his victims nice and tidy in some abandoned shack, Martin Landau stars as a deranged veteran who fails to convince the townsfolk of their impending doom while a washed up hunter played by a washed up Jack Palance decides to face the creature head on. Mostly rubbish so I wouldn't bother.
