The terms "versus" and "Predator" have historically been a volatile combination, comparable in potency to when a popular franchise tosses off a haphazard animated tie-in to gin up interest in its next instalment. However director Dan Trachtenberg, not content with only getting the Predator universe back to fighting form in the celebrated Prey, seeks to do equal justice to the cartoon counterpart with a fatal four-way anthology piece.
Besides expanding the scope of the new films' story to the stars above, Killer Of Killers gets Predator back doing what he does best: pitting the gruesome game hunter against the fiercest fighters from across Earth's history in the sort of matchups Deadliest Warrior could only dream of. We push too many pencils weighing its merits against the formidable 1987 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie and more, wondering awhile why such a simple setup is thrown so frequently in the meatgrinder. If it bleeds, we can grill it!
