Episode 21: Predator

“What the hell are you?” We’re a podcast, what the hell are you?! Oh wait, I know. You’re an alien hunter from another planet here to hunt and kill a bunch of oiled up, heavily armed men. That’s right… we’re talking about the wildly popular, hugely influential, and fun-as-hell action sci-fi horror flick “Predator”. We talk about how much we love the film, the many myths surrounding the film’s production, the insane cast, Arnie’s amazing run in the 80s and 90s, how many politicians came from this cast, the creation of the Predator, one-liners, the film’s genre-bending style, the unintentional and intentional comedy and more. We touch on the lore of the Yautja and the sequels, the comics, the video games, and everything else “Predator”. There are a lot of primal screams, Arnie impersonations, discussions about 80s manliness, biceps, baby oil, and more nonsense and laughs in this pod. We also talk about what has aged well and what has aged poorly, the wild action scenes, the great special effects that still kind of hold up today, and what they used to make the Predator’s glowing blood. Lots of good stuff. This is a great movie and was a real treat to record. So lather yourself in mud, chomp down on a cigar, load up Ol’ Painless and head out into the unspecified Central/South American jungle and let the hunt begin. And if not… What's the matter?
