Five Weapons That Could Fuck Up A Predator
5) ‘Hammer and gauge’ chainsaw (The Running Man)
Not many things can stop a Predator. We know from the movies that even a gatling on full auto will only wound the creature. A 12 gauge at close range will also have to be emptied, just to take it off its feet. So what movie weapons would one advise using against such an assailant?
The ‘Parents Guide’ on the IMDb for The Running Man (1987) warns that: ‘A man is sliced between the legs with a chainsaw’. The weapon of choice in that encounter was Buzzsaw’s saw. Now tell me this weapon wouldn’t give old Pussyface a severe pain in the ass. That’s because Buzzsaw’s Hammer and Gauge chainsaw is made of Trylon-coated Duro-steel and can cut muscle, bone, sinew, or even solid steel!
The actual chainsaw itself is a Homelite 1050 automatic. Now that’s a serious piece of fucking hardware with a 100cc motor, that’s like the size of a small bike or moped engine. The Running Man did an excellent job hyping up its Stalkers. Buzzsaw was my favourite and he was so fearsome that I probably would reconsider putting $200 on Richards. Nice bike too.
