Exclusive Interview With the Creators of ‘Predator: Dark Ages’

On the heels of great internet driven fan films tackling everything from Batman to Mortal Kombat (and recent news director Shane Black is tapped to continue on with the Predator franchise) Entertainment Fuse talks with director James Bushe and producer/director of photography Simon Rowling on their upcoming short film Predator: Dark Ages. We share a great chat with the duo who are currently seeking funds through the ever valuable funding site Kickstarter (see their page here and throw them some dough if you like what you hear) regarding their vision for their iconic alien hunter, why they are sending him back to medieval times, their inspirations, production plans and much more. Check out the film's synopsis as well as the full interview in the player below.

Our story begins in a dark prison cell with a mysterious man chained to the wall, tired and hungry. He is the only living survivor from an attack on a group of soldiers. The only living witness to the atrocities a demon of the night performed in front of his very eyes.

Entrusted by the church to hunt down the beast that slaughtered their brothers in arms, a group of battle-worn Templar Knights must use this only witness to find and kill the demon that plagues the English countryside. To lead this group is a knight who no longer believes in God or country and has given up on humanity. But will this one last battle help him regain his lust for life and save his fellow brothers as well as himself?

The soldiers are only too aware of the devastation that was brought to their lost comrades and so must turn to others to assist in their quest. A group of battle-hardened, money-driven mercenaries are called upon to join the hunt. Having to not only drag with them a suspicious sole survivor who is an eyewitness but also a pack of untrustworthy mercenaries, a difficult path full of twists and turns lies ahead for the Templar Knights, more so than they first believed.
