Read more about Feral Predator at: Wikipedia Official Site: 20th Century Studios Prey is a 2022 American period science fiction action horror film directed by Dan Trachtenberg and written by Patrick Aison, based on the Predator franchise by Jim Thomas and John Thomas. It is the fifth installment in the franchise and a prequel to the first four films. It stars Amber Midthunder, Dakota Beavers, Michelle Thrush, Stormee Kipp, Julian Black Antelope, and Dane DiLiegro. The story revolves around Naru, a skilled Comanche warrior, protecting her tribe from a highly evolved alien predator that hunts humans for sport, fighting against wilderness, fur traders and a mysterious creature to keep her people safe. Development of the film began during the production of The Predator (2018), when producer John Davis was approached by Trachtenberg and Aison, with a concept that they had been developing since 2016. The film's title was revealed to be the codename for the fifth installment in the franchise. Prey premiered at the San Diego Comic-Con on July 21, 2022, and was released by 20th Century Studios as a Hulu original film in the United States on August 5, 2022. The film received positive reviews from critics, who praised the action sequences, Midthunder's performance, visual effects, cinematography, and the Comanche representation. In 1719, Naru, a young Comanche woman trained as a healer, dreams of becoming a great hunter like her brother, Taabe. While tracking deer with her dog Sarii, she witnesses the arrival of a "thunderbird" in the sky (in reality a spaceship dropping off a Predator), taking it as a sign that she is ready to prove herself. Taabe agrees to take her with him as he leads a search party for the mountain lion that attacked one of the tribe's hunters. They retrieve their wounded tribe member and depart, the mountain lion having apparently been spooked off by the Predator that follows and observes the hunters while collecting the skulls of several local predatory species. Taabe however stays behind to find the mountain lion and complete the hunt. Naru circles back and finds Taabe. She manages to trap the lion but falls and strikes her head after being distracted by a burst of light. Taabe carries her home and returns to finish off the weakened lion, a deed for which he is honored by the chieftain and the rest of the tribe. An envious Naru leaves home with Sarii in secret the next day to hunt; she comes across a herd of skinned bison, and later tries to kill a grizzly bear but quickly gets cornered by the beast due to her lack of experience. Suddenly, she watches as the bear is overpowered and killed by her stalker, fleeing in horror before running into a pack of Comanche hunters sent to find and bring her home. The creature swiftly ambushes and kills them, and Naru tries to escape before her foot gets snagged in a metal trap. The creature, seeing that she is no longer a threat, leaves.
