Surviving Hitchcock's Birds

Date of Review:  Oct 31, 2008
The Bottom Line: The stylistic suspense and complicated scenarios and ageless action is pretty good especially the attack scenes. 
Review: The Birds (1963) by Alfred Hitchcock is a timeless and classic that makes for perfect viewing on a night like this.  The Birds is a movie that fit’s into the thriller category quickly aligning the viewer with the Brenner family.  The Brenner family...

THE BIRDS: Do not feed these birds!

Date of Review:  Aug 15, 2002
The Bottom Line: Decent, but not Hitchcock's best.
Review: Everyone knows Alfred Hitchcock's films usually evolves around certain characters, and in each of these films, we learn a lot about these characters. For example, in Rear Window, we learn that the film's main character, L.B. Jeffries, is a nosey,...

Alfred Hitchcock?s The Birds - Not As Scary As I?d Been Led To Believe

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: Better than many modern thriller/horror flicks, The Birds just failed to scare us.
Review: For quite some time I'd been terrified of this film. All I knew from my parents was that it was hideously scary, and not being a particular fan of horror films (and wanting to avoid nightmares), I'd shied away from it for years. When it was on...

That Hitchcock sucker flipped us The Birds! (Lean-N-Mean2 write-off)

Date of Review:  Dec 17, 2003
The Bottom Line: I actually laughed at some of the bird attacks. Am I gonna go to Hell?
Review: The Birds is half love story, half nightmare, and something that is really hard to get away with nowadays. It is a story of many layers, open to the most outlandish of interpretation, and has subtext oozing out of its ears. I've seen this movie a...

For: The Birds

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: You'll be rooting for The Birds to win when you see the anemic performances put on by Tippi Hedren and Rod Taylor. Good special effects.
Review: The Birds (1963)

In a case of life imitates art we have Melanie Daniels (Tippi Hedren) who is our passport into the story of The Birds. Hedren plays a gossip column item, similar to today's Paris Hilton, who seems to be famous for being...

The Birds - Another Classic Hitchcock Movie

Date of Review:  Nov 9, 2008
The Bottom Line: The Birds was another entertaining Hitchcock movie that is worth watching.
Review: Alfred Hitchcock became known for his suspenseful movies like North by Northwest and Psycho.  I have seen several, but not all, of his movies and I have enjoyed them all.  I recently watched The Birds again.

Young socialite Melanie Daniels...

Out With Their Eyes: Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds

Date of Review:  Sep 18, 2000
Review: Only Alfred Hitchcock could take a premise which is so patently ridiculous - the birds come to life and try to kill everybody - and construct a beautifully realized thriller. Based on a disturbing short story by the macabre Daphne DuMaurier (who...

Simple Terror: The Birds.

Date of Review:  May 4, 2008
The Bottom Line: This Hitchcock classic was nominated for an Oscar. Fourty Five years later, it still stands the test of time.
Review: The Birds (1963) Directed by Alfred Hitchcock.

The Birds is perhaps the best example of getting the most out of something simple. The title is simple, so is the concept, in the small coastal village of Bodega Bay, for reasons unknown birds...

This scared me silly the first time I saw it

Date of Review:  May 15, 2009
The Bottom Line: This has always been one of my favorite suspense films, with quiet horror at its best.
Review: A young woman, Melanie Daniels (previously unknown model Tippi Hedren) goes to Bodega Bay, California, a small seaside village, to visit a man she just met and might be falling in love with, Mitch Brenner (Rod Taylor). Where did they meet? At a pet...
