Predator (Dir. John McTiernan) 1987


Predator is a sci-fi film with the themes of unknown, trust, discovery, crime & friendship. The film stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Carl Weathers, Elpidia Carrillo, Bill Duke, Jesse Ventura, Sonny Landham, Richard Chaves, Shane Black, R.G. Armstrong, Kevin Peter Hall & Sven-Ole Thorsen.

The important micro feature in this film was the mise-en-scene, specifically the costume. The costume was important because the predator had to look like a threat to the audience & the audience had to believe that Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer (Arnold Schwarzenegger) & his team were serious.
