The TVI Take
John McTiernan's 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger-anchored film about a special-forces team being hunted by an alien hunter in the Central American jungle. The structural commitment to letting the first-half-as-action-film, second-half-as-horror-survival shift be the actual subject — and Stan Winston's canonical creature design — established Predator as the canonical 1980s action-horror hybrid.
