Storyline
A team of special force ops, led by a tough but fair soldier, Major "Dutch" Schaefer, are ordered in to assist CIA man, George Dillon, on a rescue mission for potential survivors of a Helicopter downed over remote South American jungle. Not long after they land, Dutch and his team discover that they have been sent in under false pretenses. This deception turns out to be the least of their worries though, when they find themselves being methodically hunted by something not of this world. Written by Laygz

Did You Know?
Trivia
The original "Hunter" model was a large creature with a long neck, a head shaped like a dog and one big eye in the middle. This can be seen on the camouflage demo's on the DVD. It was only when Stan Winston moved in that the complete design of the now "Predator" changed, along with the title. See more »Goofs
Continuity: When the team is attacking the terrorist camp and Dutch launches a grenade from his attached M203 grenade launcher, there is an explosion that sends a terrorist flying in the air. Few seconds later Poncho uses his grenade launcher to attack the camp, but the same explosion with the same terrorist is shown once again. See more »Quotes
