Here’s the Best Photo We’ve Yet Seen of the Deleted “Emissary Predators” Sequence from ‘The Predator’
Before production even wrapped, you may remember that set photos from Shane Black’s The Predators had leaked, one of which showed two Predators riding in a tank with a group of human soldiers. As we now know, those were the “Emissary Predators,” and they (along with their entire storyline and that tank sequence) were ultimately left on the cutting room floor.
The two “Emissary Predators” were apparently going to join forces with the humans to take down the “Ultimate Predator,” and we can only hope that sequence ends up on the Blu-ray.
In the meantime, a new set photo has been shared by stuntman Kyle Strauts that gives us a nice clear look at the deleted “Emissary” sequence, which you can check out below.
On a related note, NECA has made an “Emissary Predator” action figure!

‘Hold the Fort’ Trailer Pits New Homeowners Against an Onslaught of Monsters
Sunrise Films has announced the official North American release of William Bagley‘s horror comedy Hold the Fort, and it’s accompanied by an energetic new trailer.
Hold the Fort debuts on digital platforms on June 23.
In the film, “Lucas and Jenny think their life is finally coming together when the couple become homeowners. Little do they know that their new house comes with a big catch. Lucas and Jenny soon find themselves in a fight for their lives when they become trapped in a battle between their Homeowners Association and an onslaught of monsters from hell. The horror-comedy takes the timely concern of home-ownership and wraps this up in an entertaining action-packed thrill ride.“
Watch the new trailer below, which introduces one wild HOA gathering during an equinox. Things get bloody fast.
Chris Mayers (Adult Swim Yule Log), Haley Leary (“The Walking Dead”), Levi Burdick, and Julian Smith star.
William Bagley writes and directs, in addition to producing with Smith, Matt Dodd, Luke Williams, and Tim Reis (Adult Swim Yule Log).
Ahead of the release, Bagley said, “My goal with this film was to make a hilarious, fast-paced thrill ride while also telling a great story with heart. Hopefully, through all the blood, laughs, fights, and gags, you leave the film feeling inspired to tackle whatever life throws at you.“
Hold the Fort premiered at Fantasia last summer before going on to play FrightFest London, Toronto After Dark, and Beyond Fest.
I wrote in my review, “It’s an infectiously charming assemblage of jokes and monster vignettes bound together by a barebones plot with not much on its mind beyond delivering an entertaining time.”
