Watching Shane Black's The Predator that released a year afterward did not help revive a lot of interest in that movie universe for me either. I've heard a lot of takes but I'm curious, would anyone here recommend watching Covenant?

Wouldn't recomend Covenant, although it's better than Prometheus, but I would recomend Prey (2022), the one of the last Predator movies that's completely bonkers in many directions. It's filmed in american natives' language, placed in 1791, and have a lot of immersing scenes with fights with wild animals as well as gags horror enjoyers would love - like throwing a beartrap right into the face. I don't know your taste, but I hold this lesser budget and alternative thing as a new breath into the franchise.

Oh yes! I was very intrigued when it was announced and I actually added it to the "My Stuff" section on Hulu when it released but didn't get around to watching it and totally forgot about it. Thank you for the reminder, I'm marking this as the next movie I watch for sure!
