## Resource

Dead Birds (2004), directed by Alex Turner and produced during the early-2000s boom in grimy, low-budget horror, is a Confederate-era ghost story that alternates between jump scares for a slow rot of dread and bad decisions. It follows a group of Civil War deserters – played by E.T. 's Henry Thomas, Patrick Fugit, Michael Shannon, and Isaiah Washington – who rob a bank and hole up in a derelict plantation, only to discover it’s crawling with the supernatural consequences of its own bloody past! So should this dusty relic be set free at last or should it be trapped in the dark with its guilt? Find out!
