    To be fair, this is far better written, directed, acted, filmed, edited than nearly everything coming from the "professionals". If it were made into a full-length movie, it would be a block buster hit.

    Living in an age now where fans make better motion pictures than actual studios. Great work.

    It is awe-inspiring to even imagine the time it took to set all of this up. The choreography, the props, the setting, the actors, the costumes, the script, maybe thousands of man hours, all to create a video less than half an hour long, all done out of pure, raw PASSION . Absolute respect to all involved, and a laudable middle finger to Hollywood's abomination they dared call a "movie".

    I'd like to see a Predator movie that takes place in Feudal Japan. Seeing a Predator fighting Samurai and Ninjas would be epic!
  • @juanchocorleone
    Predators vs Nazis. Predators vs (Ancient) Roman Army. Predators vs Pirates. PLEAAAAAASE!!!
  • This is awesome! Now, imagine the Predator in the Viking era. A fierce warrior, not afraid of death, against a whole army of battle hardened warriors, who also have no fear of death. It would be glorious.
  • When I first saw this movie, it became canon to me. It's got absolutely everything a good Predator movie could have, and it looks like a legit professional well-made piece of cinematic art. Also love how this movie fits in the XII century pretty accurately. It's also great as a medieval film.
  • For crying out loud, give the young talents involved in this fantastic piece of filming,a contract to boot. I'll forever be a regular viewer!

    I was expecting something cheesy but I must say this really was an impressive feat and has stood up well for six years. Better than Shane Black's The Predator and had more heart and soul into it. Love the writing of the banter between the Templar Knight and the Catholic Priest showcasing what many of us have assumed the Roman Catholic Church prioritizes over everything else (and this is coming from a follower of the Roman Catholic Faith). Also extreme kudos for not ending the film with the Predator getting killed by a lucky blow from Thomas, who was clearly outmatched, and Sied wisely showing that he was not a threat to the Predator after sheathing his weapon. Showing the Predator as an honorable sportsman that adheres to a agreement is also noteworthy.

    can you believe this fan made on a shoe string budget is 10 times better than the atrocity version Hollywood gave us in 2018!
  • @cmonayyy7238
    This was more entertaining than 99% of what the giant corporations like Fox, Disney, and the MCU churn out with quarter of a billion $ budgets. Literally a half hour short was way better than anything being put out at the moment, well done!
  • @giagarex
    This and Prey understands what we want in a Predator movie
  • Great news. Predator Dark Ages has won 'best fan film' at the Tri Cities International Film Festival this month. Huge congratulations to the cast, crew and everyone who has supported us and helped get our short film made. Thank you all.
  • @robertmunoz7058
    When he started smacking his sword against his shield to call out the Predator for a fight, I was instantly reminded of Dutch's warcry from the original movie. So good!!
  • @tatesapb
    This is the best Predator fan made film I have ever seen. When the Predator pulled out a sword to fight - that was amazing. So damn good.
  • @markwilson4568

  • @BrandonVoiceGuy
    Its almost impossible to come across a YouTube fan video this well made lol
  • @astrovortex6307
    You mean to tell me that these are amateur actors and not professionals? I'll be damned! Definitely underrated.
  • @kaz9781
    I'm 7 years late, but for something that was fan made, this is incredibly well made.
  • @kb-xp1zu
    To the writers, cast, producers: BRAVO! - from someone who's never seen Predator, but LOVED your storyline, the writing, and the acting of your production.
