Ted and Mary have just moved, with their two young daughters, to the sleepy coastal town of Gull Island so that Ted can complete work on his thesis. Everything couldn’t seem more picturesque about their new, seaside home…that is, except for the increasing number of aggressively behaving birds. After surviving an unprovoked nighttime avian invasion, Ted becomes determined to figure out the cause of their unusual behavior; an investigation which leads him to uncover the sinister goings on in the nearby waters. All the while, the birds increase their now deadly attacks, moving up from family pets to human victims…
One of the handful of direct-to-cable-television horror movies produced in the early to mid 90s by Universal, THE BIRDS II: LAND’S END is a jaw dropping animal attack spectacle from director Rick Rosenthal (Halloween II) which stars Brad Johnson (Always), James Naughton (Cat’s Eye), Chelsea Field (Master of the Universe), and Tippi Hedren (The Birds). Never released on disc, Vinegar Syndrome brings this notorious sequel to Blu-ray, newly restored from its 35mm interpositive and featuring comprehensive interviews with cast and crew.

"For a TV movie, the transfer and picture quality was excellent. The slipcover was on point and fit the package. I knew I had seen Chelsea Field before but couldn't remember right away. She was the flight attendant in Commando & Teela in Masters of the Universe! Many can't stand this sequel but I thought it was wonderful!"
"Feels more like a documentary at times, with the artwork and practical effects giving it that grimy creature-feature look. The effects aren’t always perfect, but they add a lot to the charm and make this a fun follow-up."
"This sequel is definitely cheesy, but it is a lot of fun if you love 90s TV movies. Vinegar Syndrome did a great job cleaning up the picture quality, and the slipcover artwork looks way cooler than the movie itself. It is a really fun, weird addition to the shelf."
"This is a movie I had to pick up to go with the original. The restoration is great as always and the packaging is just great!"
"The Birds II should get more love. The transfer is really nice. A family moves to Gull island. Maybe not such a good idea. It's really good for a TV movie. The artwork on the slipcover is cool too."
"Picture quality is good on blu ray. Ok story line and good on the whole action and horror. Nice presentation sleeve and packaging."
"THIS IS A FUN CHEESY SEMI SEQUEL TO THE CLASSIC. A MID 90'S TV PRESENTATION WITH A LIMITED BUDGET THAT SHOWS IN THE EFFECTS & BIRD ANIMATION."
"Great to finally get this on bluray with a wonderful restoration. Though it's not a well liked sequel, it's nostalgic for me from my childhood."
"Maybe my expectations were low, but I had fun with this unnecessary sequel. Definitely not brilliant like Psycho II, but it’s a competent, entertaining little film. Better than most Alan Smithees, at the very least."
"Total blind buy, I didn't know this existed till I found it on sale for under $10 w/ slipcover. It's okay, had a lot to live up too, but I'm not complaining at the price of a couple things from the gas station."
