Day of the Animals

Day of the Animals is categorized by all sorts of animals attacking people. And in this film, animals over a certain elevation begin to intentionally go after people. A group decides to go on a hike, despite a park ranger telling them that there have been different wildlife incidents in the area. The group doesn’t cancel their trip and is then hunted down by snakes, birds, and other animals.

Thanks in no small part to Jaws, the 1970s sparked many notable animal versus people revenge movies. It was also the decade that saw the passing of landmark climate legislation like the Clean Air Act—and the decade that birthed Earth Day.
