COMMUNITY REVIEWS

the birds submitted by a2sue on August 26, 2013, 11:50pm this is a typical hitchcock film, and that's a good thing

a classic--- nature rising up submitted by lisa on July 26, 2018, 3:52pm We probably deserve it, the whole Bodega Bay thing.

Hitchcock Suspense submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2018, 3:36pm Regardless of the nature, this is still pretty scary film. Hitchcock is truly the master of suspense due to this film.

Scary submitted by crp on August 29, 2019, 11:14pm Watched this my youth when I shouldn’t have- still
Haven’t forgotten it!

Still Scary submitted by sara on August 16, 2020, 8:29pm I thought this dated film would not be scary any more- I was wrong!

Not a fan submitted by Abbie G. on June 29, 2022, 2:08pm Did I miss the plot? Birds decide to go evil and peck people to death and it's never explained why, big whoop. I like Hitchcock but this just felt like 2 hours of my life I won't be getting back haha

An absolute classic submitted by aec on August 17, 2023, 7:35am Hitchcock's ability to twist a normal, everyday, almost taken-for-granted occurrence is fun. And with no special effects (except training the birds).

You'll never think the same way about a flock of birds! submitted by mickplu on July 21, 2024, 11:40pm This is a classic of Hitchcock's and thus terrifying. Well worth watching although you'll never view a flock of birds headed your way in the same carefree manner that you once did!
