Admittedly, no one could fault the franchise for lack of trying.
However, it wasnt as intense and gripping as the original, and theAlienVs Predatormovieshardly improved things.
By the time2018s rebootThe Predatorended, I was ready to give up on the series entirely.
Then I saw 2022s prequelPrey.
LikePredator,Preywas a stripped-back, admirably simple chase thriller that never let up.
UnlikePredator,Preywas set in the 1700s and featured the most diverse cast in the history of the series.
Preyproved that, in this franchise, less truly is more.
