The Fear Score take

Hitchcock builds terror from the ordinary, letting silence and a rising flutter of wings do the work no monster could. The dread arrives slowly, then everywhere at once, in a small town where the sky itself turns hostile. What unsettles most is the absence of reason: no explanation comes, and none is coming.

• —Everyday skies become a lurking threat
• —Silence weaponized before each attack
• —No explanation, only escalating helplessness
