Predator: Badlands Review — Yautja POV, Killer Planet, & That Ending

Description

Predator: Badlands might be the freshest take on the franchise yet. We break down why making Dex—the Yautja—our actual protagonist changes everything, how full-CG facial capture makes this the most emotive Predator we’ve seen, and why a story with no humans on screen somehow feels… more human.

We also get into the Weyland-Yutani connective tissue to Alien, the surprisingly funny script beats, and a finale that teases big things to come. Our Grave Tone “digs” rating: Meaghan lands at 8 digs, Arthur at 7.5 digs. Little shovel noises included.
