It's actually not terrible. You think it's going in one direction, but then there's a twist and ends on a cliffhanger. I guess a sequel is coming.

No gore, no boobs. All off-camera violence. Tries to rely on atmosphere and story for scares.

3 stars.

"Hey, our friend's been gone a long time, and now he's texting pictures of the outside of the car and messages to run. I'll go walk alone for help."
"Hey, both our friends have been gone a long time, and now we're hearing screams in the distance. I think we should split up."

These are medium speed, lurching murder zoms. No brain eating. And they're insanely tough. Only thing that seems to hurt them is fire.

The Javert-like police detective was a good touch.

No boobs. -1 star.

2.5 stars.

I think there are hints that his strange, new girlfriend and her family are some kind of vampire, but it's never confirmed. (Hoped for an after credits scene or something.)

Anyway loved it.

4.5 stars. @jonbeanhastings.bsky.social highly recommended.

The outrageous notion that a someone with no friends will be institutionalized. The fact that he somehow brings to unlife corpses that he digs up in a cemetery. (At first it's unclear if only he can see them animate, but later everyone does.)

This is charming, sweet, funny, strange, and spooky.

(He creeped on her too.) Mom finally gets sick of his shit and poisons him.

So... rape, cat death, rat death. Not great. Cindy Williams was the standout as the incredibly sweet girl who totally fails to read the room.

2 stars.

So basically, he lurks around, creeping on Shirley Feeney. She stays around for some reason and even flirts with him. He kills the victim of the rape. Police baffled. He kills his lawyer. Police helpless. He finally gets around to killing Shirley. Neighbor finally has had enough, calls police.

Are we supposed to sympathize with him?

He peeps on and assaults cute lodger. Kills animals. Stalks and commits murder. Did prison make him this way, or was he always a psychopath? The movie doesn't tell us.

Pretty light fare for a Wes Craven movie.

The dog is threatened but doesn't die.

3 stars.

The AI on the suit was pretty advanced even by today's standards. It could even identify "benign" humans vs "malign" non-humans (even though it's never encountered non-humans before).

Lady Devil had no game. "Join me because you want me. See how hot I am?"
"No thanks."
"Uhh..."

The company and its Venusian exploration suit served no purpose other than to give Inventor Man a way to travel to Hell without burning up. I thought maybe the bad guys were Venusians or something trying to interfere with the research. But no, just demons.

There's PLENTY of glowy green Yautja blood. White android blood. Black alien/monster blood. There's dismemberments, decapitations, disembowlments, incinerations, etc. The violence is quite extreme. But since there's no red blood, it gets the PG-13.

No boobs.

I wholly enjoyed this movie.

4.5 stars

The planet is a "Death Planet", yes, but still. EVERYTHING is a predator. Everything is killing everything. I don't think an ecology like that is sustainable.

It's PG-13. But I realize that's not really an issue. There are no humans in the movie. No humans means no red blood.

Yautja are Klingons, Dek is Worf, and now he's just part of the crew. "Oh, Dek, you just have to get in touch with your human side." (Cue humorous musical stinger)

It feels off seeing a movie where the Predator is making jokes. Sorry.

Downsides:
By making the Yautja the MC, you strip the race of their mystique. By the end of the movie, it's yucking it up with the android and Bud, no longer the terrifying, mysterious, merciless, unstoppable killing machine of the past.
