This time, James Nguyen’s Birdemic: Shock and Terror.
Software salesman Rod has the perfect life. He has just closed the biggest deal in the history of his company, which has itself just been bought out by a giant conglomerate. More than that, a chance encounter with an old school friend leads to a blossoming romance with a Victoria’s Secret model. Everything is going well, until death swoops in from above.
At time of recording, it was ranked 5th on the list of the worst movies of all time on the Internet Movie Database.
