Pilot 1: Holy Toledo! I've seen some mighty big chicken hawks back on the farm, but man, this baby takes the cake!

Pilot 2: Honest to Pete, I'll never call my mother-in-law an old crow again!

These are the most ridiculous lines I've ever heard in a monster movie.

Just saw this thing BTW and seriously, it's onee of the best "so-bad-it's-good" films ever made, no doubt about that. How can you not like that laughable bird? I simply LOVE it!

How could they cut the power, man? They're animals!

"A bird as big as a BATTLESHIP, circling and preparing to attack the C.A.B. plane."

This movie is full of random lines.

"you can hit it with anything but the kitchens sink" to which general replies "well we got kitchen sinks to spare"

"so what are we waiting"
"get me my pants, will you, general"

"vodka is a perfect antidote for snake bite, thunder, lightning and disbelieving generals"

Atomic spitballs.....?? "One of those cockeyed concepts that you pull down out cloud 8." "The bird came here to build a nest." "A fantastic orgy of destruction...."
