Flu Bird Horror Audience Reviews

ThiefHott Too much of everything
Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
GL84 Out in the wilderness, rehabilitated teens come across a swarm of strange birds infected with a mutated strain of avian flu and must try to stop the unrelenting attacks from continuing and warn the world of the crises.There was a lot to like from this one. One of the best parts is that the film really manages to get a lot of great moments due to its strong pacing. This one is just relentless, not even getting ten minutes in before the birds attack the main group, which is outstanding and really appreciated. The fact that the attacks are also fun is great, as this one contains some really good sequences and gets really fun as it gets going in the rather frenetic opening scene where it shows the birds raining down on the confused teens as they flee in panic. Some of the other bird-attack scenes, including one where they're under attack inside a cramped house and any of the forest attacks are pure fun, with several sequences stuck inside a gas-filled chamber and the attack on the SWAT team. There's also the way it handles the virus and how it transmits it, managing some fun scenes where the discovery is made, and the race to keep it contained and really feels like something of a crisis, which comes off as a nicely done way of building tension to their attacks, using an impressive-looking hospital victim and them falling under the effects later to generate even more which is a nice plus. The last positive is that this one works in a nice amount of gore into it as well as the fact that the birds are realistically designed, both drawing from a real dearth of fake and cheaply-done CGI, which is a nice plus as these here are the film's best features. There wasn't a whole lot of flaws to this one. The main one is the fact that this one doesn't offer up too much in the form of explanations for anything, as there's no explanation offered for the bird's appearance, or even for the mutation of the virus, how it even got to the birds, what it does or really anything else, which is a grave error as it doesn't really manage to put anything together or really make an effort to do so, merely content to simply say they're alive and leave it as that, which makes for a suitably ill aftertaste. Along with the fact that it misses a grand opportunity with the helicopter attack, these are the film's flaws.Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language and Brief Nudity
MartianOctocretr5 You'll root for the birds. Some obnoxious noisy twerps are camping to get away from "juvie hall" for a couple of days, and a swarm of mutant bird/dinosaur hybrids decide to shut them up. They blindfold their clichéd chubby dumb guy, and send him wandering into the forest. Glad to see how the correctional system is putting our tax dollars to work. Well, at least the birdies have the right idea on how to deal with these fools, and it's worth tolerating all the screaming, yelling, bad acting, and "rebel teen" baloney just to see the birds wipe out these creeps. The losers even bait the bird creatures with an injured guy as a diversion to escape; perhaps a lame attempt at social commentary. Feed them all (including the crew) to the birdies.
zero_destiny_0 Lo, for the genius of humanity reveals itself in Flu Birds, the most awe-inspiring movie ever - before it's over you'll wish you were playing solitaire on your computer, it's just that grabbing. As this abomination progressed, I found myself gaping, gasping, laughing, crying, even shivering - all in agonizing pain. The epic fail this movie is, is riveting. Surely it is the horror equivalent of Beverly Hills Chihuahua, which we all know is the best film ever with its Bottom 100 rating. The only thing scary about Flu Birds is the blatant discontinuity and the idiocy of the characters, all of whom are either exceedingly stupid or just plain assholes. You'll hate them all and wish them dead. The "birds" look more like pterodactyls than anything; the idea that they are even mutated doesn't fly. Their CGI was okay, although there were many scenes that were sickeningly fake. Scientific and logic flaws are so numerous there's just no counting them. Indeed, you will shed many tears of disappointment and despair that this movie could even be put into production, if it doesn't burn your eyes out first. Do yourself a favor and rent a documentary about rocks. It'll be better than this movie by far, and you're far less likely to kill yourself at the end.
kiawa77 Just use fishing as an excuse for anything.If you hear a roar in the woods and your friend is standing about three feet from you, it is prudent to ask, "Did you hear that?" If you are carrying a shotgun when a large bird-like creature swoops down and starts chewing on your pal, show him what friends are really for and run like hell.If you are blind-folded when playing a stupid camp game, make sure you wander deep into the woods and way out of earshot of help before removing your blindfold.If giant flying dinosaur-like creatures attack your camp, run for cover in a nylon tent, especially if you just watched them peck the counselor to death.Delinquents are always more resourceful than armed people and the authorities.Nothing brings people together like a group smoke.Standing by and watching while people you know get eaten by monsters is never fruitful.When on the run from flying, mutated bird monsters, you can always find time to stop and make out in the woods.Apparently beating the hell out of equipment you perceive to be faulty won't fix it after all.Two delinquents with shotguns are more effective at shooting monsters than heavily-armed, highly-trained military personnel.If you are with a group of people, most of whom have guns, be sure not to fire at a monster that is essentially at point blank range in your car window.We will never know where the bird monsters came from.We will never truly know if all of them were destroyed.We will never know if the strain that went air-born at the hospital got out.We will never know what eventually happens to our heroes.But all in all, "people can change."
