It never ceases to amaze me how some fans will go above and beyond to create something incredible to show their love of a particular universe. In this case, several pals got together and have created a new entry into the Predator series by having the infamous alien hunter face off against a group of medieval knights for a short film titled Predator: Dark Ages. A trailer for the film can be seen below and, according to io9, the full film will premiere the MCM London Comic-con on May 22nd-24th next month.
The synopsis reads:
Set during the Crusades, the faith & fighting skills of a group of Templar Knights is put to the test when they encounter the Predator. Their battle is the thing Myths and Legends are born from.
As far as fan made short films go, this looks pretty incredible. There’s a real sense of production and quality that many other shorts lack.
The film was written and directed by James Bushe and stars Adrian Bouchet, Amed Hashimi, Sabine Crossen, Ben loyd-Holmes, Jon Campling, Joe Egan and Philip Lane.
