Kaw is a 2006^[1]^[2] made-for-television horror film directed by Sheldon Wilson^[3] and starring Sean Patrick Flanery, Stephen McHattie, Kristin Booth, and Rod Taylor. An international co-production of Canada and the United States,^[1]^[4] Kaw is a Sci Fi Pictures original film. The film's plot, which follows a town besieged by hostile ravens, is similar to that of The Birds (1963)—which also starred Taylor—and has been called an homage or modernization of the older film.^[5]^[6]
