Dead Birds (2004)
A good remake...
Apparently nobody saw the original version of this film when it was called THE DIVIDING HOUR.
They almost literally did a scene for scene remake with minor changes and set it in the civil war. Bank robbers on the run all the way to the end... same plot... same twist.
Watch it and tell me the writer of Dead Birds (title makes no sense) was actually writing something "Original".
Regardless, it has much better production value than DH which was made for 7 grand.
I enjoyed the flick quite a bit... despite the fact that I made THE DIVIDING HOUR and never got a residual check for this unlicensed remake ;) Plagiarism is the highest form of flattery in my book.

Who has time to write these reviews?
Just because our little first time $7,000 flick, which was made in my mid-twenties (over ten years ago), with now completely outdated technology (Hi-8 video), got good reviews is beyond me. But we got'em and the distributor slapped them on the box.
Sorry you didn't like it. For every negative review we had ten times as many good to glowing reviews. Go figure.
They're asking for a star rating... I'll give it a 6 since I was 60% happy with my own film ;) PS - What the hell! Appearantly you have to write ten lines of text for your review to be printed. I guess they'd have a huge list of people writing "AWSOME!" or "This Sucks" otherwise.
