''Birdemic 2: The Resurrection'' is the sequel to James Nguyen's abysmal film, ''Film/{{Birdemic}}: Shock and Terror'', a film that is allegedly an [[InNameOnly homage]] to Creator/AlfredHitchcock's ''Film/TheBirds'', This film focuses on Rod's friend, Bill, who is an [[AuthorAppeal indie film director]] trying to make a film. Bill meets a girl in a restaurant, and he persuades her to audition for the lead role in the film, along with Rod's girlfriend Nathalie, who apparently now wants to be an actress, despite her previously very successful modelling career with Victoria's Secret. [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext Birds then proceed to attack them because of global warming.]]
