What can I say, this is just a movie meant to have fun, and at times, it succeeded. It’s important to remember that you have to be realistic with your expectations in films like this. I probably would’ve been upset if I had gone to the…
A bit too much yip-yapping but has a likeable B-Movie cast and a pretty rad monster suit. Just don't be fooled by the incredibly brief cameos by Danny Trejo and Adrian Paul.
This was pretty awesome
It's like predator ...alien.. and some Bigfoot movie all combined...sounds weird...but it works
The characters are all likable and the banter between them is good
Cool setting
Monster looks cool
It's got some decent gore in a few scenes
It's hurt by it's budget but looks like most of the money went into the creature...which is fine
Danny trejo and Adrian Paul are barely in this...so don't expect them to be major characters
Nick Chinlund is awesome in this...I've always liked him when he'd pop up in films but this his totally his film.
If you're a monster movie creature feature fan...this is worth while
There's a setup for a sequel...I totally hope it happens

In 'The Prey 2' US soldiers and the Taliban join forces to defeat the evolved offspring of Karnoctus.
Sometimes a mashup of different movies don't work but I kind of like this one. I like creature features and this creature looks pretty wicked cool. And there's one pretty cool bloody effect near the end. The poster's deceiving as Trejo in it for about 3 minutes.
Best film since Con Air. So, add that.
I never have been to Afghanistan, thank goodness—Iraq was enough—I also have never been hunted by a Yeti Beast in a Cave. But I love I already know I would probably be the first to die in this horror/sci fi film (given the crew it would be in a badass way though). The survival mode really kicks in and in my case while I would probably trip and break my glasses or something you still feel part of the team. So, shout out to Sully for basically pulling off Paxton in Aliens. Loved this whole film, don’t make them like this anymore. If you do not realize the fun times about it you can keep going to film school. Look at the cast and crew! Great idea.
Also has squibs.
Only watched this to see Danny Trejo but he only appears for a few mins at the start and narrates the film every once on a while which was quite dissapointing. Pretty much they wonder through a cave for half an hour and fuck all happens before the Predat- I mean the Karnoctus (which by the way has the goofiest monster design I've seen in a while) actaully starts posing a threat to the characters. It's definately a movie to watch and laugh at with your mates. Apart from that, it's just another low budget action film that's worth skipping.
After getting attacked in an ambush, a group of soldiers finds themselves stranded in a cave with a rouge group of soldiers secretly smuggling gold out of Afghanistan and are forced to team up together to get out, complicated by the discovery of a strange mystical beast living in the caves hunting them one-by-one.
Overall, this one had a lot to like about it. Among the better features here is the rather intriguing setup that provides this one with a lot to like about the various figures coming into contact with each other. The series of interactions with the military troop coming into conflict with the rebels that push them into the caves where they come into contact with the…
