Prey is a 2007 horror-thriller film directed by Antoine Blossier. The film takes place in the African wilderness, where a group of tourists and their guide embark on a safari. However, things take a dark turn when they are hunted by a man-eating lion that seems to be stalking them.
The film stars Grégoire Colin, François Levantal, and Fred Ulysse as the tourists, and also features a lion named “Charlie” as the antagonist.
