Predator: Badlands
4 outta 5 Predator films have been going through many installments, with the latest Predator: Badlands taking the series into the future and featuring some light crossover with the Alien franchise. It actually takes one of the meanest villains in sci-fi and makes him a likeable protagonist, which is probably helped by giving him a…

Aliens vs. Predator: Requiem (’07 review)
3 out of 5 Out of all the “vs.” horror movie franchises, Aliens vs. Predator is one of the few monster vs. other monster series that makes sense. Godzilla vs. King Kong? Simply two big creatures from their respective countries battling it out. Freddy vs. Jason? Round pegs hammered into square holes. Alien vs. Predator…
