Join us for our second instalment of Hitchcock horror at eerie Brompton Cemetery. Playing on our primal fear of unruly beasts, and of being the submissive in an attack, The Birds gives a bleak answer to the question; "What if...". In his follow up to Psycho, Alfred Hitchcock crafts a gory thriller of unrelenting bird attacks on an innocent town. Unlike his previous films, The Birds has no score to heighten its tension, but rather relies on the scratching, flapping, pecking sound of the birds themselves to leave you unsettled and on edge. Tippy Hendron stars in her first role as a wealthy San Francisco socialite who pursues a flirtation with a lawyer to a small Northern California town. Things turn sinister when birds of all kinds suddenly, and with no reason begin to attack and kill people. A camp classic, The Birds is a must see for any Hitchcock fan.
