| Topic | Board 8 Watches and Ranks 80s Horror - Pt. 2: 80s Revenge |
| Snake5555555555 04/18/24 9:39:17 PM #47: | Forty - Theres bound to be some debate on whether Predator is horror. My two cents is that its just Action/Si-Fi, but at the end of the day its a suspenseful movie with a monster that kills people one by one and flays them so you wont hear me complain that its on the list. Anyway, its muscles vs. monster in this peak of 80s badassery. It starts out with a standard rebel camp raid, all big guns, explosions, and one-liners and then evolves into something way more sinister than a bunch of guerillas. The slow reveal of the predator is great, from the initial infra-red first-person view to the final one ugly mother fucker form. He has a truly frightening presence and theres a reason hes one of the most iconic movie monsters. If this were Action/Sci-Fi, Predator would most definitely be in the top 5 but as a horror film I feel like I have to (begrudgingly) place it fairly low.
