Interesting facts

Kaw is a 2007 made-for-television horror film directed by Sheldon Wilson and starring Sean Patrick Flanery, Stephen McHattie, Kristin Booth, and Rod Taylor. An international co-production of Canada and the United States, 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.

Production

Kaw was shot in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, in December 2005, on a CA$1.8 million budget, with filming taking place on the same soundstage on which the television series The Hilarious House of Frightenstein was filmed. The production of Kaw utilized 11 live ravens from the Czech Republic, which were supplemented in post-production with numerous additional birds created using computer-generated imagery (CGI).
