In which the Mister joins me in reviewing PREY (2022), a Hulu original currently streaming on Hulu and Disney+. The film, written by Patrick Aison, from a storyby Patrick Aison and Dan Trachtenberg, is directed by Dan Trachtenberg. The film follows Naru (newcomer Amber Midthunder who we hope to see more of) a young woman in the Comanche Nation circa 1719. We are introduced to her anda day in her life where she obviouslyyearns for morebut because of the socialorder of things has been relegated to moreof the women’s work roles. She’s intelligent and a skilled hunter – thingsthat come in handy and help her on her journey. Things escalate quickly and a dangerous menace is out in the woods and she takes it upon herself to engage it head on and save her village. Gorgeous locales,costumes and a solid script makethis a fantasticaddition to the franchise and a MUST WATCH. The film is 1 h and 39 m and is rated R. Please note there are SPOILERS in this review.
