Trivia

When the film was purchased for distribution by New World Pictures 15 minutes of footage was edited for the release. New World rarely released films that were longer than 80 minutes fearing that audiences would lose interest the longer the film ran. Among the scenes cut from The Prey was an opening sequence showing the gypsy village being destroyed by the forest fire. See more »

Goofs

Audio/visual unsynchronized: Characters' voices don't match lip movement; numerous instances within the first 5-10 minutes. See more »
