Description

Following the success of 'Prey' and 'Killer of Killers', Dan Trachtenberg returns with his next Predator release; 'Badlands' - and its epic.

Taking a big swing, Trachtenberg shakes things up and puts us up close and personal with the Yautja as they take centre stage, making for an epic sci-fi action adventure that never stops with its thrills. The director clearly has a strong vision for this world and the skill to bring it to life. His passion shines through in every frame, and delivering three consecutive hits is a testament to both his creativity, and his commitment, to pushing the franchise forward.

‘Badlands’ might not have the grit you would like from a Predator film, but it does manage to generate that intensity and suspense through its set pieces and danger our lead finds itself in - and it really is hard not to come away impressed by it.
