I for one love killer animal's movies, so I could not wait to see Kaw, While it sure sounded a lot like Hitchcock's The Birds it's far from a rip-off of.it is actually a really good movie and other great thing is that they've actually used real birds most of the time to limit the use of CGI , which makes movie much better! and ravens are scary enough to keep you away from them for a few days.The story Police Chief Wayne Hayborne, is on his very last day of work and wants to get away from the town with his wife after he has finished work for the day and he Need put it on hold as call comes in about old farmer as been found dead, Meanwhile a bus driver Clyde MacKenzie has a run in with a flock of murderous ravens and fight back with a gun!.There was a decent amount of gore in the film with several scenes of ravens plucking the brains from their victims and bus driver dog was really scared , if you like dogs like I do, believe ME you Will hate ravens what they did to that poor dog very sad scene.Most of the actors in Kaw are Very likable and the acting for small budget horror was excellent. It not great movie But it still really good.I give this movie 7/10

This movie is as bad as it sounds. Killer ravens. I watch almost *anything* that is labeled horror. But I had been avoiding renting this since the premise seemed so weak that it couldn't possibly flesh out into a watchable movie. My wife brought it home one Saturday night and... I was right. The problem here is exacerbated by the fact that I had recently watched two movies which had killer birds in them as a subplot and they were pretty well done. "Resident Evil: Extinction" was one of them, can't remember the other but it was a ghost movie o some kind. Anyway, the crows/ravens in this movie didn't scare me one bit. I kept thinking "just cover your head with your jacket and you'll be all right dammit!" The production values are a couple of notches higher than the quality of the script. The acting is standard/mediocre, which isn't a deal-breaker for me in these genre flicks. The cgi was, again, standard/mediocre, which wouldn't bother me much. Oddly, the photography was quite well done, (always comparing it to the quality of the script). It seemed like there was *some* talent in the crew, but they were simply doomed to make a horribly scripted piece of ... I cannot stress enough how bad, bland, clichéd the story is. It's the only reason I felt compelled to write about it.

On the last working day of Sheriff Wayne (Sean Patrick Flanery), his small town is attacked by blood thirsty ravens that eat human flesh. Meanwhile his wife Cynthia (Kristin Booth) visits a farm where a Mennonite family lives to say farewell to her friend Gretchen (Megan Park) and discloses a dark secret about the origin of the fierce ravens."Kaw" is entertaining, but the plot is quite ridiculous. The explanation that the ravens had eaten flesh of cattle with mad cow disease could explain their aggressive behavior or they hunger for flesh; but the ravens are smart, using for example stones to break the windows of the school bus, and the scientific conclusion is that mad cow disease makes raven intelligent. That is too much, isn't it? My vote is five.Title (Brazil): Not Available
