The people at io9 have just featured the first look of Hunter Prey. It is an upcoming Science fiction film directed by Sandy Collora. He had made a film in 2003 titled Batman: Dead End way before the release of Batman Begins. He ran into a controversy because of the film. It was a huge hit in all quarters at the Comic Con. Now he is gearing up for the release of Hunter Prey that looks amazing.

The film centers around a crew of special forces commandos who must recapture an alien prisoner that has escaped after the military transport ship carrying it crashes on a desolate and hostile planet. As Collora himself explains, “there are subtle political and environmental overtones that I certainly don’t hit anyone over the head with at all, but that will hopefully make you think about things like war, politics and current events, by presenting them in situations cinematically from a uniquely different perspective.”

Collora has already finished shooting this on a shoestring budget down in Mexico and is currently in post production. The pictures are from an interview he had with io9 and he told them that it has some similarities to the James Cameron Terminator sort of thing, where it is “a very small piece of a much larger picture.” He continues, “It concentrates on how the bigger situation (which in this case, is interplanetary war) is affecting the two main characters, who are now separated from it, and how they relate and react to their situation and each other as a result of it. As the story unfolds and more things are revealed about the characters and what their relationship is, we had to create in a sense, what we could not show.”
