Alien vs. Predator: Requiem Is So Dark... We Could Barely See It | Hold On To Your Butts Ep. 19

from Hold On to Your Butts: A Podcast About Great Franchises that Uhhhhhhhhh Lost Their Way

The Predator series hits what many fans consider its lowest point. This week, JD and Paul are joined by comedian Ethan Everhart to break down Alien vs. Predator: Requiem (2007), the sequel infamous for being so dark that audiences literally couldn't tell what was happening on screen. The crew dives into Wolf the cleanup Predator, the Predator honor code, behind-the-scenes production stories, practical creature effects, why the movie pretends Vancouver is Gunnison, Colorado, and whether the franchise completely lost its way. Plus, there's plenty of time for discussions about streaming services, The Godfather, Stephen King, Predator vs. Santa Claus, and a surprising amount of Predator lore.
