So this was a movie made with no budget, where you can see laughable CGI effects thrown in. A discount Predator lands in the Old West, and fights a Low-rent Schwarzenegger clone in the wilderness who is being chased by some bounty hunters, just so we can have something to pad out the time. A "Good" Alien, who looks like the stereotypical Gray, informs him he has to stop the Discount Predator from signalling back that Earth is full of resources.
The movie intersperses with a modern day scientist babe who provides exposition, and is informed by the same Good Alien (or a member of his species) how to reset the warning beacon to keep the bad aliens away. She is able to do this without getting killed, unlike Discount Arnold, who dies after some fistfights with the alien. Discount Arnold was also the producer of this film, so he gives himself top billing.
The whole thing looks "Student Film", which is the only way I can explain it. It apparently has several titles, which is never, ever a good sign.

Movie Reviews
Well, they tried.
One of the worst movies I have ever seen.
Writing, acting, plot and effects are just awful. They forgot to put in punching sounds on the fist fights which were nearly silent. On the plus side, Robert Amstler has a great body and fills out his costume nice. That's what the three stars are for.
A Good Start
It is clear that I am rating this higher than others here. My reason is that I can see what could be with enough resources, acting, writing, and directing. It was easy to see the connection here with the Predator movies. I have been hoping to see a movie with a Predator in the old west. I am a fan of westerns and the Predator franchise. I hope this will inspire someone with the resources to take another attempt of making a better movie about cowboys and Predators. The effort here was good with what they had to work with and the movie held my attention until the end. Good job folks.
