The Prey kind of falls under the genre of movie that you see the box every time you went to the video store in the 80's, but never rent it until it was a 99 cent rental. Being a strange young fellow I actually did rent this and actually was a bit freaked out by it.

The quiet soundtrack and slow pace were quite intense for a seven year old. Then again I was still scared of the chocolate pie baker falling down the stairs on Sesame Street at that age.

Join us in the Birdhole as we pitch a tent while watching....The Prey! (Theatrical Version 80 Minutes)

Birdhands is back with a brand new invention.

Well, not brand new but at least 65 percent new jokes are featured in this weeks watch along of the 1991 classic, "Cool As Ice".

 

Time to get into some hometown horror. In fact this may be one of the best Canadian horror movies of all time.

Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum are incredible in this 1986 Science Fiction gross out classic. Some of the most repulsive visual effects you will ever see are in this movie.

We already have our buzz on, so hang on to your fingernails and get ready to take a trip, on "The Fly".

If you think that you can take the formula that made 1982's "E.T." a major box office smash and recreate it without the talent of Steven Speilberg and Industrial Light and Magic then you are wrong. Dead wrong.

In fact, this week on Birdhands we will present the evidence to back up this claim.

"Mac and Me" is what you get when believe that money can replace heart and passion. Just because Ronald McDonald and Coca Cola have you covered it does not mean you will come out on top. Trust us. It is worse than a plate of McRib's.

This week on Birdhands we watch four more classic Degrassi episodes.

Degrassi Junior High Season 2 - Episodes 6 and 11

Degrassi High Season 1 Episode 14 and Season 2 Episode 7

Sync yourself up! You've got a new friend!

Oh My Gaaaaawwwwwwdddddd!

This movie sucks.

Remember the first time the creators of Halloween decided to ask the fans to forget particular installments in the series?

Well, it was 23 years ago and they did it again a few decades later. But nothing beats the original slap to the audiences faces and the Birdhands gang was there on opening night to witness Jamie Lee Curtis' return to the role she was destined to milk for the rest of her life.

At the time, "Halloween H20" was like a sunny day after a long cold winter. But now it is more like a late nineties time capsule. Nostalgia was not as big as it is now and this could have been better and much more successful in rebooting the franchise.

This will probably make you remember "Dawson's Creek" more than anything but we would love it if you joined us as we take a sip of H20!

We got this man! We got this by the ass!

We sure do. The original "Dawn of the Dead" is one of the greatest and epic horror movies ever made. And yes this is the one that Generation Z usually refer to as the "more boring one" compared to the remake. But to anyone who remembers renting this on VHS from a local video store in the old days, it is the film that blew your mind.

Seeing this for the first time was so amazing that it is an experience that I try and repeat by getting other people to watch it. I doubt it has the impact it once did now that the genre is played out, but this is the one that really started it all. If you have not seen this, forget our commentary and turn your phone off while you watch it to take it all in.

Then come up for round 2 and view it with Birdhands.

Also we are watching the US Theatrical Cut as that is the best one.

David Cronenberg is a Canadian icon. This week on Birdhands we discuss various parasites we have had and also the ones that are featured in this movie.

Make sure to wear protection, and join us as we get "Shivers".
