A great film, obviously a little outdated as far as cgi, but a classic horror film nonetheless that I highly recommend.

~ THE BIRDS gets the 4K Steelbook release ~

Alfred Hitchcock's THE BIRDS gets the UHD 4K steelbook release and it comes out a winner all around. Now, THE BIRDS was previously released on 4K in a box set with other Hitchcock movies in the 4K format, but, it did not have a standalone set. It also had previously a Blu-ray steelbook release with different artwork on it. After the initial run of that, the prices went way up, so I am very happy to see this arrive. The movie itself is just another brilliant take on Mr. Hitchcock's movie making style and suspense.
It looks and sounds fantastic now in the 4K format. I have never seen it look this good on the 4K TV and player.
All special features have been brought over from the previous releases.
This also has the digital copy of it, if you collect those.
Well done!

The Birds - Hitchcock Does It Again

A wealthy San Francisco socialite pursues a potential boyfriend to a small Northern California town that slowly takes a turn for the bizarre when birds of all kinds suddenly begin to attack people. Starring Rod Taylor, Tippi Hedren, and Jessica Tandy I consider this milestone to be the pioneer in the 'nature revolts' sub genre. For reasons that remain unexplained throughout the entire movie, birds spontaneously launch aggressive attacks against the inhabitants of Bodega Bay. Hitchcock's nickname 'The Master of Suspense' is justified through many individual moments here in this film. The film's brilliant anti-climax, with thousands of birds just sitting and suspiciously waiting outside the Brenner house is legendary and imitated copious of times. "The Birds" presents a truly ominous atmosphere that still manages to send cold shivers down your spine. Don't miss it.

I first saw this movie when it came out when I was 10 years old and it scared the heck out of me. The thing that always disturbed me about that this movie was you never really understand what made the birds act the way they did. No resolution.
If you like an edge of your seat thriller, “The Birds” fits the bill. Alfred Hitchcock was a master and it is on full display hear.

There's so much that can be said about The Birds that can boil down to the phrase "not the very best." It's not the very best Hitchcock, 4k transfer, or audio transfer. But there is a reason why it's been included with all-time bests Vertigo, Rear Window and Psycho in the 4k box set- it's indelible mark on pop culture. It's influence cannot be understated- from directors who based elements of their own films on it, to the fact that people know the general premise even if they haven't seen it. Again, this is the weakest of the Hitchcock 4k's so far, but there are moments of 60's technicolor oversaturation that I love. It also has a steelbook cover that I find so much more appealing than the standard, even more so than for the aforementioned classics.
