Flops because it lacks true tension and certainly can't keep up with the shock value of its gore-filled horror contemporaries. Go to Full Review

...ultimately undone by the inclusion of at least one needless subplot and a pace that's almost glacial in its execution. Go to Full Review

05/04/2024 Kaw R (gore and killing) - Horror and beasts Horror Monsters See more tim s 04/16/2021 "Kaw" is a SCI FI, horror that takes its inspiration from Alfred Hitchcock's "The Birds." A small town sheriff, one day away from relocation to the city , finds his community under attack from thousands of vicious ravens. Along with help from a few local residents including the doctor, played by "The Birds" actor Rod Taylor, sheriff Wayne tries to protect the surviving town members. The performances are solid and Rod Taylor's presence adds a sense of reference back to the original 1963 horror "The Birds."  Apart from a very unnecessary sub plot regarding a small Mennonite commune, "Kaw" has a good story line with a believable reason for the attack. Some of the effects are surprisingly good and there are some gory horror moments. However it does not build in tension the way Hitchcock crafted the 1963 chiller and due to the sub plot it struggles with pacing. However  "Kaw" did hold my attention and interest for the full duration of the film. This despite the school bully surviving and some questionable accents and dialogue regarding the Mennonite Farmers. See more 05/19/2017 Another decent animal attacks movie. Nothing really noteworthy, but it's got a solid premise and some good effects. See more 11/26/2014 Zero momentum and botched execution of the simple stupidity of a killer birds movie make this a complete waste of time.
