Les Ailes de la Terreur

It's okay, but don't expect much. These have to be the dumbest teenagers alive. You will find yourself wishing for all of them to be eaten. Campy dialog and terrible acting but there was some decent gore.

Where to begin criticising Bird Flu Horror? Well, to start with, it is a very cheap-looking movie. The scenery is alright, but the editing is haphazard which I think further reduces any tension levels and the special effects were so fake I had to check to see whether it actually was made in 2008. The story is another big problem, not only does it have numerous scientific and logical errors, it is predictable and has no real sense of dread, in fact a lot comes across as overly-silly rather than anything else, but it makes the mistake of being dull. The script is cheesy and doesn't leave the actors much to work with, the birds lack any kind of menace, the direction is lazy and the characters are stereotypical and you don't care for them at all. The actors try their hardest, but you can tell they are struggling to give any credibility to anything on display in Bird Flu Horror. Overall, I've seen worse but that is not excusing the fact that to me this movie was more of a horror than any scene it was made up of. 1/10 Bethany Cox

So my warning to those of you who have not yet wasted their time, no matter how cheap you may view it, DON'T.

This is what the Sci-Fi Channel is becoming known for; brain-dead movies which are not in the least "Sci-Fi". At one point in history, not so long ago, say, prior to 2002, the Sci-Fi Channel was true to its name. Then came movies like this. And in droves! Garbage, pitiful piles of dung which never cease to amaze for the sheer low quality they exude.

What's most notable about this "movie" is the sheer LACK of anything GOOD to say about it! Rare is the movie which is of such all-encompassing lackluster merits that there are no good points to be offered. No, this movie doesn't even have the "cheese" appeal; you can't even say "it's so BAD it's GOOD"! If you want that, watch some of the Japanese monster films from the 1960s.

About the only remarkable quality of this film is how the Sci-Fi Channel manages to produce movies which continue to get WORSE.

I was cheering for the Flu Birds to win so the movie would be over. The writing and directing had me feeling sorry for the actors. What could they do to save the film being handed this piece of poop. Was it written by a 7 year old and directed by a homeless person. My apology to the homeless. The actors apparently needed jobs and apparently need new managers. The actors did over act in what I think was them trying to make the movie kind of camp. The actors were good looking but I saw pain in their faces like they were being forced to do this film. If this was intended to be a horror movie then they really missed the mark. I did find myself laughing at how ridiculous the whole thing was. It is another example how someone had a good idea for a movie and then the writers and director screwed it all up. I suppose the people that funded this movie are so rich that they wanted a tax loss for the year?

An infectious, reeking, horrible excuse for a movie. I cannot believe I spent a dollar at the red-box renting this movie; a mistake that will be sure to haunt me for days to come. Trying to put down all of what went wrong in this movie is a confusing and overwhelming task- it seems like there is no end to the list of mistakes a person could put down for this "movie". However, trying to come up with some positive points is a much easier and rather manageable task, so let me give it to you:

1. The special effects in terms of the graphic gore (of which there was plenty) was not 'that bad'. I would not go so far as to say very good either, but at least this was tolerable. It looked believable enough.

2. The character range was believable, given the nature of their grouping. They had a drive that reflected who they were, which gave what little drive there was to this plot.

Now, what was wrong with it? 1. The majority of these hardly known TV bit part actors couldn't act to save their life. Seriously. Someone should find them an alternative career path and encourage them to seek a start in it immediately, before I or anyone else has to sit through another movie with their sub par acting making already bad movies even worse.

2. The story had all kinds of plot holes and little was to be expected in the way of tying things together and having this make any kind of sense whatsoever. Do you want to see a movie that you can follow? Rent anything else. Do you want to stare at your TV in disbelief for the next couple of hours, thinking about the other things you could be doing with your time besides trying to figure out WHAT just happened and how? Well this one is for you my sadistic pup.

3. Discontinuities up the wazoo. I won't spoil it for you by describing what all the messed up, but believe me, it is extremely noticeable- and I often don't notice these little screw ups the first time I watch a movie.

This movie looked like it had the potential to be a mix of a classic and a good movie- The Birds and 28 days later. Instead, I was quite disappointed and to say the least quite surprised that I did not pick up my pen and shove it through my eye and as far into my brain as I could, so I could get out of seeing any more of this film.
