Rescue team encounter a deadly alien

Rating: 7/10 (1 May 2011)

This is the first installment of the saga that still continues to this day.
Six agents are sent into the jungle of Guatemala on a rescue mission. Unbeknownst to them, a deadly alien also chose the same spot to go out on a hunting season - for humans. Rather young Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in this horror/sci-fi/action drama. Stan Winston studio designed Predator also makes it's debut in this movie. The movie has a real feel to it and has become the favorite of the fans of this series.
Also in this movie is the young future governor Jessie Ventura. His motto was "Do like Arnold to succeed" and switched from professional wrestling to the big screen. Maybe Arnold thought "Do like Jessie to succeed" when he ran for the California state governor's seat.
The mission was actually a con sprung by Dillon (Carl Weathers) to infiltrate the guerrillas and collect information. Dillon thinks he's got one on Dutch (Arnold), but he's the one who stepped into a big dudu not knowing the danger that awaits him. It's fight to the end for all of them once the hunt begins.
