You know, there was part of me which hoped that Predators would turn out pretty bad ass, but given the poor history of the franchise in recent memory, I thought that it was kind of a crap shoot.

Today, however, the official website launched, and crowds at SXSW got the first look at a sneak-peak at the film, which I’ve embedded above.

Thus far, it feels like a gritty, 80’s style actioner, which is the exact feel you’d want.

The full trailer will be hitting the web on March 18th, with the movie hitting theaters on July 7th, and I can say - I am very hyped!
