Predator: Killer of Killers

“Predator: Killer of Killers” (2025) is not just another installment in the long-running Predator franchise—it’s a daring, animated anthology film that dares to rewrite the rules. Directed by Dan Trachtenberg (of Prey fame) and Joshua Wassung, and penned by Micho Rutare and Jim Thomas, this animated feature dives into fresh waters by presenting a triptych of stories from vastly different historical periods, united by one terrifying element: the Yautja, or Predator. While many fans remember the brutal jungle hunts and sci-fi tech from previous entries, Killer of Killers introduces something fresh: deeply human protagonists from different eras, all facing the ultimate intergalactic hunter. This film is a perfect blend of bloody spectacle, high concept, and unexpected emotional depth.

From Star Trek to Dr Who to Star Wars, there is no stone that has not been upturned in the pursuit of wokeness. The Predator franchise being no exception. "Predator: Killer or Killers" is the latest instalment in the diversity, female empowerment, social engineering experiment that's inflicted itself, on contemporary audiences. Made up of distinct predator themed stories, its annoying from the get go, not to mention eye rollingly implausible. In summary, I could find little to nothing to like here, given how hard it was to see past the dreary miasma of politicised, social engineering. Not recommended.
