Birdemic: Shock and Terror (2008)
I could not have been happier to see that “Birdemic: Shock and Terror” was on Netflix streaming earlier today. Sure I had seen the film once before but I needed a refresher and now I have a link to give out for streaming so that everyone can enjoy it. Maybe you have heard of Birdemic but never got around to watching this modern b movie masterpiece. The film does have a nasty reputation at being just godawful, and for the most part, much of that is justified if you are a mainstream movie watcher. However, if you happen to like painful scenes and dialog, and I know that many of you do because of the popularity of shows like “The Office”, then this is about as painful as it gets. The lines are delivered in an almost English is a second language…so feed the actors the lines one by one so that the timing and delivery is off, type fashion. There are many uncomfortable camera shots that just seem to have an extra few seconds too many in them as well. Both of these two elements combined add up to something awkward. You will be able to pick up on both of the above mentioned within the first scene and it is par for the entire course of the film.
So let’s get to the fun. “Birdemic: Shock and Terror” is about a couple in love and a whole lot of killer birds that try to ruin their lives. The birds, which you can see in the trailer so you will know what to expect, are incredibly awesome bad. I do not have any more words just watch the trailer and if this is the type of film that entertains you as much as it does me; then I am glad you are visiting this website. Birdemic 2 should be out in a few months and I can’t wait to watch it.

OMG…all together the worst movie ever created!!! And yet you cannot stop watching!
Come on Tiff, we both know that I have watched this movie 3 times over the last week and told everyone I know to also watch it. I half feel that telling people to watch Birdemic is almost a practical joke much in the fashion of “come see the half-snake-half-woman-creature” at the state fair is. Although I am not taking 2-5 dollars from you for the joke the film does take a whole hour and a half of your life away from you, so I am not sure how I feel about that. What I do know is that I am seeing Birdemic 2 when it comes out. If it gets a limited theater release then I am going to watch it there.
