Description

Nothing equals The Birds for sheer terror when Alfred Hitchcock unleashes his foul friends in one of his most shocking and memorable masterpieces. As beautiful blonde Melanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren) rolls into Bodega Bay in pursuit of eligible bachelor Mitch Brenner (Rod Taylor), she is inexplicably attacked by a seagull. Suddenly thousands of birds are flocking into town, preying on schoolchildren and residents in a terrifying series of attacks. Soon Mitch and Melanie are fighting for their lives against a deadly force that can't be explained and can't be stopped in one of Hollywood's most horrific films of nature gone berserk.

  • A tense atmosphere, but very anti climatic.

    This is a true classic, it deserves no less than 5 stars. If you have not seen it, this is a fabulous movie, they don't show it as often as they used to on TV. Still, price should come down as it IS very old. ITunes folk! Bring down the price to £3.99 and I'll buy xxx
  • Love love love

    Just watched this film and I haven't laughed so much in ages! I was actually crying. Not remotely scary but it was hilarious ( not that's it meant to be)
  • Alfred Hitchcock's No. 1

    Everyone who's heard of Alfred Hitchcock knows this film, it's probably the best and most terrifying.

    Puts a lot of modern day horror films to shame wonder if it's going to get a modern day remake? Doubt if anyone could re-create the atmosphere of this great classic!!
  • Wow.

    Good film all in all, a good classic thriller. The only thing... am i the only one to find the endng a little odd. They get attacked all through the film but at the end the birds all let them get of the island? Hmmmm Dont forget to look out fr Hitchcock in a brief cameo!
  • The Best of the Best...
