Size matters in the jungle. You wanna do a sneak attack on an enemy camp and rescue the hostages? Naturally, Poncho, you bring a squad of enormous ex-bodybuilder, wrestler, and football player ninjas to get the job done! Got it! But the mission doesn't end there, soldier. You gotta get to theĀ extraction point. And the only things standing between you and the governor's mansion are miles and miles of bad bush and an invisible killer alien who's as big as a house and as silent as Bill Duke's razor. Casting Note: Jean-Claude Van Damme was the original choice to play the Predator. Midway through the production he was replaced by the late (and very tall) Kevin Peter Hall. Of course ,Van Damme was probably the more ninja-like actor for the role, but the creature's original design was most definitely not ninja approved. Not even Ninja Turtle. Look it up. It's ghastly.
