Predator with Dan Soder

Dan Soder (Billions) joins the show this week for a review of the original Predator. They talk about the movie's interplay between action and horror, James Cameron inspiring the design of the Predator costume, the Schwarzenegger-Stallone rivalry, why the showdown between Billy and Predator happens offscreen, and why Predator is never talked about in the pantheon of Freddy and Jason.
