I would hope anyone who calls themselves a Predator fan knows who Kevin Peter Hall was. Well, I was wondering if any of you Predator fans have any autographed memorabilia of him in your collection?
 
I don't have anything with Peter's sig. but I do remember this show.

Kevin Peter Hall R.I.P. 1991.

Yeah, he was also the Alien in "Without Warning", the movie Predator was inspired by. The signature was secured in 1986, just prior to predator and I suppose when Misfits of Science was on the tube. I never see anyone tout one of these out when they show either their Predator or autograph collections. So, I'd say its kind of obscure. A nice addition to my goodies.:naughty
 
I have a signed pic of him as the Pred.
I'll try to photograph it and post it up.
My favorite autographs are O.J. and Robert Blake...the wife killers!
Makes a good grouping.

Van Damme was in the suit first, but complained it was too hot and uncomfortable and the Pred was recast.

I used to work with Kevin's aunt in Pittsburgh. She was a really nice lady and brought in all these photos he took on set of Pred and Harry and the Hendersons. Really cool stuff. He died way too young.

He did. For a day.

Also, Hall....no one can match him. The Predator may be just a creature, but Kevin made him more....^^^^ing doctors. :mad:
 
For real! :lol Predator looks far better being taller! Cant believe I didnt know that! Thanks for filling me in
 
The Van Damme suit was a completely different design from the final version; looked rather like a mantis on steriods. Because of it's construction, it was nearly unfilmable. Stan Winston's shop was called in to save the project, with spectacular results, of course..PS
 
actually if you watch the making of the predator. the preadator looked like a big bug or something.. it's before stan winston got involved. yes jean claude van dam played the character first and when the studio or people realized it was going to suck they replaced him and the dumb idea with something knew.
