THE talk of Sundance 2025, this captivating and utterly fascinating new documentary from acclaimed filmmaker David Osit explores the controversial – and enormously popular – NBC series, To Catch a Predator, which ran from 2004 to 2007 and aimed to lure potential child predators through sting operations, leading to multiple arrests, lives destroyed, and its eventual cancellation.
PREDATORS asks the audience to question our true motives for watching this lurid yet eminently watchable series, presenting us with a thought-provoking exploration of the scintillating rise and staggering fall of the show, and the world it helped create. This one’s a conversation-starter you’ll be discussing long after the lights come up.
