The premise to Birdemic: Shock and Terror is simple enough, so I’ll spare you the granular plot points aside from what’s absolutely essential to pique your interest– while exposition and context is always important, you’re better off seeing this kind of cinematic spectacle yourself.
When Rod (Alan Bagh), a star Silicon Valley salesman, closes a million-dollar deal, he decides to start his own solar panel business. With great wealth comes great responsibility, and Rod wants to use his newfound wealth to make the world a better place through his energy conservation efforts.
By chance, Rod happens upon Nathalie (Whitney Moore), his high school crush who’s now pursuing a modeling career. Rod and Nathalie immediately hit it off, but have to put their romantic intent on the backburner when mutated eagles and vultures drop from the sky and explode upon impact. Though the title, Birdemic: Shock and Terror, lets the viewer know what to expect, this primary source of conflict is only briefly glossed over during a quick news bumper before things kick into high gear.
