    I'm glad to see this movie get released in 4k with a steelbook. One of my favorite Hitchcock films. If you haven't seen it yet, I would highly recommend it.

    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.

    You can tell this movie have withstood the test of time. It was good when I was a kid, and it's very good now. The 4k scan allowed me to experience it like never before. A must have in every collection.

    Classic Alfred Hitchcock spooky. I forgot how much they smoked in movies back then, or how the main glam character wears the same dress for days for her infatuation with the male lead. Still a fun spooky movie and next time you see a swarm of blackbirds in your yard you’ll move quickly an quietly…Lol

    Terror taking flight

    Sort of a proto-zombie flick, from the panic of the townsfolk to the isolation at the house with the horde banging at the door, with recognizable tropes of other later classics peppered throughout, and images that surely were mind-blowing shockers for a 1963 audience. The 4K remastering brings out the best and worst of the effects of the time. This was a good blind-buy.

    I really dug this movie. Having only seen Hitchcock’s more well known films I can say that this ranks near the top of the likes of Psycho, Vertigo and Rear Window. Only a master like Hitch could make ordinary birds seem threatening and this movie really kept me enthralled throughout.

    great looking steelbook for classic Hitchcock flick. arrived quick and luckily without dents or damage. best buy please ship all steelbooks in boxes with bubble wrap around all sides not just top. worst feeling opening a steelbook and seeing dents from paper envelope packaging and not box.

    One of Hitchcock's most frightening and suspenseful films gets the 4K steelbook treatment, and much like his other recent releases on the format, they've used original artwork and designs from the film's first theatrical release. This film - this release - belongs on the shelf of every cinema fan.
