Most people think of crows as just birds that caw and scavenge, but in reality, they are incredibly intelligent and capable of remembering human faces, sometimes for years. They can hold grudges, warn other crows about specific people, and even coordinate behavior in complex ways.

Imagine a horror movie built around that. It would not be supernatural; it would be terrifyingly plausible. The story could follow a person who wrongs a crow in some way, only to realize that the birds are watching them, learning their routines, and slowly escalating their revenge.

The tension would build from small incidents, such as crows stealing things, leaving signs, or mobbing in increasingly threatening ways. Over time, the protagonist starts to feel hunted everywhere they go, until the crows’ coordinated, intelligent behavior indirectly causes their death.

What makes it especially shocking is that most people have no idea that crows are this smart or that they can hold a grudge. It is a “Jaws” scenario with crows, where the danger is real, patient, and relentless.
