PREY (2022) dir. Dan Trachtenberg

[sleepynegress]

I Just Watched Hulu’s PREY (the latest Predator sequel)... YALL #THIS IS A REC

*whew!!!*

So, a little tidbit about me. Around 20 years ago, I worked on a rez.  They had a community center with a TV and a DVD player with popular movies the people liked.  Like any other people in America they had a collection of all the genres, including action blockbusters. But... there were only two or three actual Indigenous culture-based movies.  The rest were mostly Latine (I think owing to the fact of Latine cultures having a lot of Indigenous blood/culture within them). I remember at the time, it struck me, that even as a black woman, I was privileged in this.  NO PEOPLES have less representation in pop culture than the 1st Nations peoples... You hear me? And you can forget just a regular-egular Hollywood blockbuster movie. #PREY should have been that big Hollywood blockbuster sleeper 2022 summer movie theater hit, yall. It is now, my FAVORITE movie that has come out this summer. It gave EVERYTHING. Indigenous folks finally have a big great quality action sci-fi movie. 

And a Native WOMAN gets to be that badass (I tell u, I reverted to a kid cheering them big 80′s muscley yt men action stars from back in the day) It’s not gimmicky, quippy, or overly-faux-reverant of the culture in that cringey way yt media does with that ~wise magical NDN~ garbage...No they are just people living their lives.

It just does what it’s supposed to.  It patiently builds enough character so you care what happens to them. It gives that meaningful character journey, heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat and badass-bloody action, and a satisfying ending.

Which is all you want in a action film. And even tho I’m not Native, the fact that it’s also in genre (sci-fi) something I know some yt folks don’t think marginalized peoples have a leading place in (i.e. woke/forced b.s.), just gave me chills and made me happy in that way BP did, -that another marginalized group is getting space at the table too (long overdue tho it is). Naru is THEE SHIT. SEE THIS FUCKING MOVIE YALL, espec. if you are an action movie stan, like myself and/or a Predator fan who has been waiting for the good quality sequel to the OG movie, and like believeable action woman leads. Just for the record, I like Predator 2 and Predators and don’t acknowledge the existence of any other sequels, except for that part where Sanaa and the Predator got along (I’m sorry yall, Predators are the Negroes of aliens in space, I don’t make the rules....They only gave trophies and ritual to the two black leads) But PREY????

...MUTHAFCCIN PREY??? It rivals the OG Predator, I KID YOU NOT. If you are planning to have an action movie night this weekend??? 

Cue this sucker up and get your popcorn. SEE IT!!

I finally got around to watching “Prey” and I have to say I enjoyed it thoroughly! The entire creative team, in particular, did such an incredible job.

It got my world building gears turning... what would a "Yautja Drake" look like? Maybe they are used as an aerial steed to hunt down large game?

Okay, I had this crazy theory about both Prey (2022) and Predator (1987)

You remember in the first Predator (1987) out of everyone, Billy is the first one who noticed that is something is wrong. He kept looking around in the jungle, sensing something off but had no idea what it was.

He was right of course, but my theory is that Billy already know it was the Predator! I did some research and turns out Billy is half Native American and heard stories of the Predator when he was little.

Now with Prey (2022) with Naru tribe being the Comanche (it would be cool with it turned out Billy is also from the Comanche tribe.)

It finally makes sense why Billy try to fight the Predator because he knew you had do it to beat it. (You can also argue that he was buying time for everyone else, but still.)

New favorite genre! Women of color warn about a humanoid creature wreaking havoc only to be the sole ones to kill it and take its head as evidence. Sweetheart (2019) starring Kiersey Clemons and Prey (2022) starring Amber Midthunder.

the way i clicked on prey (2022) on hulu with absolutely no context beyond "a predator movie with an indigenous cast and female lead" thinking neat!! and 1hr 40min later i was a changed woman

AU IDEA I REPEAT AU IDEA

so we all know that Yautja have a society built on hunting and fighting. it’s common knowledge, but what if there were Yautja with other skills?

Say that a Yautja is really good at dancing or painting, they would probably be seen as an oddball or an outcast. then they leave and start their own clans that can let their creativity flow. They build beautiful art galleries and sell art or jewelry at little stands. They could build specialized places to teach others how to dance. And the list goes on with other stuff. But it will also benefit them. Decoys, camouflage, agility, acrobatics, flexibility, etc.

they find new ways to hunt and enjoy their lives. Just some food for thought lol

“You bled my brother. So now you bleed. You think that I am not a hunter like you. That I am not a threat. That is what makes me dangerous. You can't see that I'm killing you. And it won't either.”

A new final girl has unlocked. Watch Prey. It's on Hulu. No, you absolutely don't have to have watched the other Predator movies to follow it, imo.
