Major Alan „Dutch” Schaeffer – Predator
I don’t remember the first time I watched Predator. It was definitely in the 90s. Dad borrowed a VHS tape from the rental store to see the movie for himself, and of course I accompanied him. There were times when no one was categorizing production and people were less concerned with what the kids were looking at. I remember that I was most impressed by the scene where people were shown flayed! But let’s move on to our star, Arnold Schwarzenegger. How he impressed me years ago. Brave, strong and even coped with an alien! Years later, you change your mind a bit. The title and its main character are more amusing than suspenseful. These scenes full of testosterone and muscles, lyrics like “get to the choppa”, explosions and more dying characters … Of course, only one can survive. I guess Billy Sole knew that because there is no other explanation why he suddenly stopped and cut his chest, thus exposing himself to the opponent. However, it must be admitted that aloneThe Predator was done really well. Even though it’s 1987, the special effects still look good today. And the movie itself looks pretty good. A little distance, a pinch of salt and we can have a great time with Arnold, his package and a visitor from another planet. – Piotr Markiewicz
