Typical scifi

Very cheesy, with a fair amount of Gore. If that's what you're looking for this is for you. Personally sorry to see Greg Evigan Reduced to having to do this kind of thing for a paycheck. But it's a gig right ?

Phorusrhacidae

When a birdwatcher goes missing his daughter and her college buddies go looking for him in the Texan backwoods, or something. Then they get killed off, one by one and stuff by Phorusrhacidae, or Terror Birds as they are better know. A rich, ruthless man is attempting to breed them, no matter what the cost. It goes without saying that this is yet another cheap and very cheesy horror/monster flick, complete with wooden acting, silly plot and crap CGI. However this film has its tongue planted firmly in cheek, it is as much a comedy as it is a horror movie and to be fair it is reasonably funny at times. Not a total waste of my time and money, I was expecting worse and I now know what a Terror Bird is!

"All it takes is one bad egg."

Two outsized birds escape captivity and cause CGI havoc amongst a cast who appear to be having a great time. Such ebullience is addictive, and if you're in the mood, this is pretty good fun, on a strictly Scooby-Doo level.

Dumb adults and funny, smart-arse cute teens (of whom, my favourite might well be constantly sniping Taylor - Lindsey Sporrer - the silliest of all) hog too much of the running time when what we really want to see is some decently rendered birds pecking some poor blighter to death. This being a fairly family 'friendly' ScyFy project, there are no profanities and nothing too shocking.

My score is 6 out of 10.

Fantastic Bad CheesyMovie

Big birds, insane philanthropists and cheesy acting.

The movie is fun, will a cast who seems to understand they are making a B Grade movie.

Wow. It's BJ McKay And His Best Friend CGI Bird.

And some horrific CGI Birds they are. The CGI is just terrible. But at least it's better than Peter Jackson's flapping at the air King Kong CGI. A silly story here about 2 killer ostriches that go on the rampage in BJ McKays bird sanctuary. I made it to the end, barely. What a lamer. But it avoids the 2 thanks to the security guy who ALMOST made it to the end. 3/10.

Trivia
Phorusrhacids colloquially known as 'terror birds' are an extinct clade of large carnivorous flightless birds that were the largest species of apex predator in south America during the cenozoic era.
