- CTDEA Movie Club: Prey
We discuss Prey, the latest movie in the Predator franchise very unexpectedly set in 18th century Comancheria. (Never would have predicted that one.) In this movie we follow Naru, a Comanche hunter who takes on an alien visitor...and our preconceptions. Oh yeah!
We give our verdict, talk historical accuracy and wonder whether Jordan Peterson would like it. Spoilers: no.
