Alfred Hitchcock directed and produced this horror-thriller loosely based on Daphne du Maurier's short story of the same name. The movie stars Rod Taylor, Tippi Hedren, and Jessica Tandy and focuses on a series of mysterious attacks by birds on the people of a small town in Bodega Bay, California. According to The Birds by Camille Paglia, an analytical text published by the British Film Institute, Hitchcock claimed that the birds in the film rebel against humanity to punish us for taking nature for granted.
Similarly, Us is a movie about a group of people who rebel against a society that has cast them aside. The Tethered rise up to take back the lives they deserve from a nation of people who have become numb by prosperity. Essentially, both films strike a chord of fear in the audience by using the face of something quite familiar.
