In the last century, fat man has made birds into horror movies

The relatively long black silhouettes of birds dancing in the opening, with a sound like that of a crow, set the tone for the whole film.

Then there is the background music of the birds,

The blond women's clothing store clerk was mocked by the male protagonist, and the rich girl began to approach the door on the grounds of sending birds.

Hitchcock-esque driving shots

The blond girl was pecked by a bird before she landed, and she was perceptive. According to the previous preparation, this is not a good sign.

Then the male protagonist's sister was attacked for holding a birthday party.

The male protagonist is at home, birds enter from the chimney,

It is still very difficult to photograph birds pecking people.

School students were attacked, street residents were attacked,

The bird's stay, wandering, is a bad omen, and the audience's heart is lifted together.

Then in the end Hitchcock still did not explain this super logical phenomenon, and the suspense was in the end.

    The sense of horror in horror movies often does not stem from monsters, but from space. Horror is the threat of daily order (Robin Wood). When the perspective space of the movie is directly linked to order, the relationship between people and daily space changes-a monster invades your home ("Alien"), you break into a monster's home ("Midnight") Ghost Goes to Bed), your house gradually becomes a monster's house ("Dawn of the Living Dead")-thus can be used as a kind of entry to distinguish the types of horror movies. In this way, "Bird" is actually a zombie movie!

    The shooting technique is quite worthy of admiration, the atmosphere rendering is quite in place, the large bird is really scary... and even if it is not Hitchcock's usual suspense film, it is still in the same line in many camera settings and character relationships... But I still feel like playing Hitchcock The actresses in Kirk movies are all unlucky (.
