Viewing Notes

I’d been anticipating Hunter Prey for a long time and when it finally released on DVD, I snatched it up.  Hunter Prey is sort of a call back to early 80s Science Fiction.  There’s no fancy CGI effects, no space opera.  Just an old fashioned chase movie set on a desolate planet.

I adored this movie.  The effects are pretty great, the make up and costumes are surprisingly well done.  This is a good looking independent movie.

Those searching for a grand action shoot ‘em up are going to be disappointed.  Sandy Collera does a great job of capturing the tone of the early 80s Sci Fi without the cheese.  It’s a simple, yet timeless story, told with some ingenious special effects and great acting.
