i love old monster movie for the pure camp value . this one do not disappoint if you find that sort of thing amusing . the acting be pure 1950s stilted crap . you do get use to it when you have see enough of these . the dialogue be very silly and ultimately forgettable . youre just there for the giant bird . the science in this movie be hilarious . a monstrous otherworldly avian that can manipulate anti matter . intent on wreak havoc and eat people . an alien who have come to earth to nest . some of the best scene in the movie ( that do not have the bird in them ) include the scientist explain what be go on . a lot have be say about the ridiculous bird marionette . it look like a new baby bird . bald and ugly with ruffled feather . it even caw like a hungry and angry fledgling . however and the bird scar the crap out of my three year old and who have big scary bird nightmare for the evening . it a bit creepy . i be very sad about the scene where they shoot the egg . ( somehow the egg be not protect by an antimatter shield . ) but i be a bird lover and what can i say .
