Wikipedia article
'Beaks: The Movie' (, "The Attack of the Birds") is a 1987 English-speaking Mexican horror film directed by Ren Cardona Jr. It stars Michelle Johnson and Christopher Atkins as reporters trying to figure out why birds have starting attacking people. It was first released in Europe in 1987 and also known as 'Beaks: The Birds 2', 'Birds of Prey' and 'Evil Birds'.
Plot
Vanessa, a television reporter covering a story about a farmer attacked by his chickens, discovers that this is not an isolated incident. Travelling to Spain with her henchman, (also cameraman and boyfriend) Peter, the two discover the survivors of a town wiped out by the birds thirty years ago. Meanwhile, attacks continue as a child's birthday party ends in tragedy and doves devour a poultry farmer and his wife. Vanessa soon comes to the conclusion that the birds are organizing themselves against the ecological ravages of man (of what they did to them), but time is running out as thousands of birds of all types launch attack for revenge against a train Vanessa is travelling on.
