In 1987, Predator stalked its way into cinemas. The sci-fi action blockbuster, which told the story of an alien lifeform that preys on a group of mercenaries in the South American jungle, starred Arnold Schwarzenegger and Carl Weathers.
Directed by John McTiernan, Predator was an explosive, high-octane action film, loaded with superb set pieces, great characters, and one truly memorable villain. The movie also boasted some damn fine dialogue, which has become very quotable over the years.
In this post I am taking a look at that dialogue as I serve up a collection of the best movie quotes from Predator. Here are the lines that stand out from the crowd in this classic ‘80s film!
