Jhane Myers, the producer of the thriller film 'Prey', shared that the team conducted extensive research with regard to the way of life and traditions of the Native American tribe of Comanche.
The film presents a vicious and terrifying showdown between various predators with a gripping narrative and representation of the Comanche tribe.
Talking about the work it took to learn about the tribe, Jhane said, "We did extensive amounts of historical research and studied their customs and period-appropriate dialogue and sign language."
She added: "The Comanches hunt and fight for survival. Everything that they hunt, like when they hunt a Buffalo, every part of that Buffalo is used. Nothing is wasted, and they're also thankful for the spirit of that Buffalo that's able to nourish them, clothe them, and is used for everything that they need in life."
