Welcome to the Crow-pocalypse

bird movies

By Sean Zucker –

If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that the apocalypse is closer than ever. While film and culture have long suspected and theorized the initial spark of our species’ demise, new information should shift the conventional thinking. Traditionally, the usual suspects have proved to be hyperintelligent aliens, fully conscious robots or a widespread zombie virus. But a new likely culprit possessing the strength of all three threats combined has recently emerged—crows.

According to STAT, crows are not only hyperintelligent but they may have true, self-aware consciousness. “Crows know what they know and can ponder the content of their own minds, a manifestation of higher intelligence and analytical thought long believed the sole province of humans and a few other higher mammals,” it reports, or perhaps warns.

Newer research published in Science even saw crows performing high-level brain actions involving neurological activity that suggests they possess the ability to make decisions and act based on sense and reason.

Given this new information, it seems high time to do some revisionist history and reevaluate a few cinema classics to better reflect this monumentally obvious apocalyptic menace.
