Awful, pathetic, cheap, and totally boring is what I expected this to be. I was very pleasantly surprised to find the opposite was true. I am a fan of some of the Predator films. I loved the original with Arnold. The second was awful. Alien Vs. Predator was awesome, but AVP2 sucked. Predators with Adrien Brody was - IMO - boring and could've been much better. This movie, Predator-Dark Ages, lifted the series up, even though it's fan-made.
It clocks in at 27 minutes with credits. It has a very professional look and feel to it. Unlike many fan-made, indie movies, this had good actors and what looked like good production value.
The special effects were good, but there weren't that many. There wouldn't be, since it takes place in what looks like the 1100-1300 era.
The movie got right to the action without wasting time on anything boring. The ending was a bit of a surprise, but I won't spoil it.
I'm guessing this was low-budget, but I tend to think that whenever a studio didn't produce and distribute it. Don't let that scare you. As I said earlier, it has the look, feel, acting, and production value of a studio-released film.
I gave this an 7-star rating because of my surprise at how well it turned out. I highly recommend if you like the Predator films.
