I was really hoping for something similar to The Happening. the bird attack scenes were really well done especially for a movie from 1963. wouldn't mind a fresh take on this with a better surrounding story since Hollywood loves to regurgitate old ideas. Spoiler the only little thing I disliked about the actual bird aspect to the movie was that there was no known reason for the attacks, though I'm sure that's what Hitchcock was going for yeah, I did just put spoilers around a film more than a half century old lol but here, I'll make up for that: ding dong the witch is dead, and the Oz Wizard wasn't really a wizard lol

Not sure if they still show it but I think Starz or one of the premium movie channels would air episodes of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" if you want more Hitchcock.



There is a really solid one with Telly Savalas.
