The Frenzy

When Daphne du Maurier wrote her short story The Birds, who knew it would end up as one of the Hollywood greats? The master, Alfred Hitchcock, knew a good story when he saw one and quickly optioned the script to feature in a location in America called Bodega Bay. Now, in modern day Britain, the birds are back, set in Bristol and the short story's original location, Cornwall. When John Hock awakens to the sound of his children screaming, he finds a large crow sitting at the bottom of his son's bed, silently watching, as if devoid of all its natural instinct.When John takes a blanket and whips the bird back through the broken window, he couldn't know that was the start of it all. The birds around the world have turned. No longer man's friend, they are looking for blood and they will have it whatever the cost. The war has begun, and they are coming. In Bristol, Ellen and Harry Fear want to protect their loved ones, but it may be too late. While John and his family travel north, they are met with consequences so terrifying and unfathomable, they must fight for their own survival as the birds destroy everyone else. Now, whilst man is at war with the skies, the end of the world has begun.
