Katie and Bridget get lost in the jungle as they re-watch the 80's movie: Predator! Come along as we follow a bunch of muscled, sweaty men (not Magic Mikes, unfortunately) who are traveling through the jungle in search of saving some hostages. What they don't know is that they are being hunted by an invisible being. Spoiler alert: it's the mofo Predator! When the men start getting killed off one by one they resort to blowing everything up, destroying the local ecosystem - via blowing everything up, and continuing to shoot guns even when their arms are blown off. But all that fails because what they really needed was mud! ...Just some mud! We've got Arnolds! We've got gratuitous violence! We've got Microsoft Paint CGI! We've even got a Predator that laughs at the end because why the fuck not! Released in 1987, it stars a cast of characters played by Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, Elpidia Carrillo, Bill Duke, Jesse Ventura, Sonny Landham, Richard Chaves, and Shane Black.
