For the second film in our tribute to Carl Weathers, we move to 1987 and Weathers teaming up with another superstar: Arnold Schwarzenegger! In 1987's "Predator," directed by John McTiernan, Weathers plays Staff Sergeant George Dillon, a former comrade now turned CIA operative, who needs a group of commandos to invade a South American jungle to save Americans taken hostage by a local militia group. Dillon turns to his old comrade Major Alan "Dutch" Schaefer (Schwarzenegger), and asks him to bring his crew on the mission. His crew is made up of Sergeant Mac Eliot (Bill Duke), Sergeant Blain Cooper (Jesse Ventura in his first film role), Sergeant Billy Sole (Sonny Landham), Corporal Poncho Ramirez (Richard Chaves), and Corporal Rick Hawkins (Shane Black). Upon reaching the camp where the Americans are being held, however, it becomes apparent that this is a strike mission, not a rescue mission. After taking out the militia's camp, the group discovers it is being stalked by a creature not of this earth (played by Kevin Peter Hall, voiced by Peter Cullen). The hunters quickly become the hunted, with the "Predator" picking off one member at a time until only Dutch is left. Will the last survivor make it out of the jungle alive, or will he become the final victim of the extra-terrestrial using Earth as its hunting grounds? Plus, the trio unveil which two William Friedkin-directed films make up the next pairing!
