Predator: Badlands Gorefest Meets Alien Crossover Chaos
20th Century Studios keeps the blood flowing with 'Predator: Badlands', the latest monstrous spinoff bravely mixing death-dealing alien hunters with an Alien universe cameo, because subtlety is overrated. Director Dan Trachtenberg, who nailed the clever survival action in 'Prey' and 'Predator: Killer of Killers', now delivers what can only be described as a generous splash of goreâprobably to distract from the tangled franchise timeline that sci-fi fans pretend isnât confusing. With 'Badlands' somehow greeting fans in 2025 and linking two fearsome sci-fi sagas, the studio proves once again killing it means blood, guts, and equally messy universe crossovers.

Nothing says family fun like alien death hunts soaked in gore and intergalactic guest stars. 'Predator: Badlands' throws subtlety out the window and brings the most enthusiastic monster mashup no one knew they asked for.
Predator meets Alien in a gore-soaked crossover thatâs basically an interstellar messy divorce between franchises. You can almost hear sci-fi nerds scrambling for their chronology charts.
Dan Trachtenberg wisely decided the best way to honor Predator's legacy was just to throw as much blood and extra aliens at the problem until it stuck. Genius or chaos? Yes.
