The Jersey Nerds are back with another hunt through the Predator franchise!

This week, we're taking on The Predator (2018) and Prey (2022)—two films that couldn't be more different.

💀 The Predator (2018) — Shane Black's ambitious sequel had all the ingredients for a franchise revival... so what went wrong? We break down the overcrowded story, questionable creative choices, memorable performances, and why this entry remains one of the series' most divisive films.

🏹 Prey (2022) — Then comes the comeback. Set in the 1700s, Prey strips the franchise back to its roots with a tense survival story, breathtaking action, and an incredible performance from Amber Midthunder. We discuss why many fans consider it the best Predator film since the original—and whether it tops the franchise for us.
