Made fairly recently in 2009, Birdemic: Shock and Terror is a movie you have to see to believe. The very idea that a movie this bad exists can't be adequately described. It's the ultimate drinking game. Take a drink whenever the director screws up the most basic filmmaking 101 no-nos. I'm not kidding when I say there are scenes in the movie that are not just choppy and pointless, but sometimes out of focus. They hold on finished scenes and it looks like the actors finished their lines and are waiting to go home.
I think the most accurate description I can think of comes from the Superman comics. In the Superman comics, Darkseid scours the universe looking for what he calls the "anti-life equation." An equation that would give total control over free will and mathematically proves the futility of existence. I call Birdemic the "anti-movie equation."
Birdemic is a story about a guy falling in love. And then birds start attacking people and exploding. I wish I was kidding. Armed with trusty coat hangers (no you read that correctly) four friends try valiently to fight off the birds while learning a valuable lesson about polluting. No I'm not making any of this up.
It simply has to be seen to be believed. Just be sure to have your Birdemic: Shock and Terror movie survival kit. Your standard Birdemic: Shock and Terror movie survival kit comes with no fewer than two snarky friends to help you make fun of it, 3 kinds of chips, salsa of your choice, several ready cans of coke, a rubber mallet for that wonderful feeling of smashing the DVD to pieces once it's over.
Enjoy!
