"THE BIRDS COULD BE THE MOST TERRIFYING MOTION PICTURE I EVER MADE." ~ Alfred Hitchcock.
​

Disturbingly creepy. Pity they don't sing much.

 

​

Exciting, strategic and thought provoking. Nuclear testing has a new breed of monster.

 

​

So realistically threatening it is scary. It is massive!

 

​

Terrifying beyond belief. The movie monster nobody wants.

 

​

Strategic, technical and thrilling. You have to love that singing.

 

​

Unpredictable creeper. You have to love the faces on these horrors.

 

The movie The Birds was based on an actual incident in 1961 in which the Birds in a Coastal California town ingested a form of algae which caused them to go berserk and attack people - the incident is even mentioned in the movie

Also, the movie was originally supposed to end with the car crossing the Golden Gate Bridge covered with thousands of birds, but sadly it would have put the movie overbudget - that would have been so cool.

 

I can imagine that because I have seen how insane seagulls perform on a normal diet. Perhaps Hitchcock's vision will be pulled off with CGI next time.

 

​

Exciting and romantic. The airforce had their hands full this time.

 

I don't know Hitchcock did pretty well with those mechanical birds interlaced with real birds.

I also read somewhere that Tippi Hendren was none too pleased with Hitchcock's sexual advances. can't really blame her he was 30 years her senior.

 

You cant spell Hitchcock without COCK. I never knew he was like that. LOL

 

I used to love watching that movie when I was a kid on Channel 56 in Boston, and what a cast with Edmund Gween and James Arness.

Every Saturday afternoon they would show all of the movies you've highlighted and many more on, wait for it, 'Creature-Double Feature.'

 

I wont ever stop. I plan to post them forever and ever and ever. That film felt like it was off to an early start. The army was given the run around too.

 

​

The mysterious meets the technological. It was starting to look like there was no hope for them.

 

​

Impressive story and vision. Jumpy.

 

Once it's anti-matter shield was destroyed, regular conventional weapons were more than a match for the creature

 

It never lasted very long in that final battle. lol

 

​

Colossal, sleazy and exciting. Real ex-wife stuff.

 

​

Fast and clever. I want to eat one of these creatures.

 

​

Creepy and phobic. What a way to go.
