I remember seeings this on the tube back in the early seventies. But I think it was called "The Birdmen Of Beckstadt".

It plays like a TV pilot though I don't think it was one. I still enjoyed seeing Ray and Gene. Agree that "Birdmen" is pretty good. Wasn't it also called "Escape of the Birdmen?" That's a better title. The first one sounds like a horror movie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-38883056386035597922012-12-21T11:51:25.472-05:002012-12-21T11:51:25.472-05:00I don't remember seeing these, Rick, but my go...I don't remember seeing these, Rick, but my gosh what a line-up of excellent actors in both! I am a very big Milland fan, and would like to see him and Tierney in the first one. I also like Don Murray a lot. It's too bad they did what you described with the story -- it could have been a lot better with a longer period of suspense and an ending that did not need an epilogue (I don't like that!)<br /><br />The Birdmen sounds fascinating -- I really wish someone would start syndicating these old TV movies. I think they would be so much fun to see, and hopefully would have a good enough audience to make it worthwhile.<br /><br />Merry Christmas, Rick ... I hope your holidays are happy!ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.com
