Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Bert Williams (not the legendary African American entertainer) was the "auteur" of The Nest of the Cuckoo Birds. Williams stars as a revenuer, combing the Everglades in hopes of weeding out moonshiners. He comes across a wayside inn, managed by looney-tune Ann Long. Seems that Ann is a taxidermist, who has a fondness for stuffing and mounting human beings. Collectors of recorded esoterica please note: Nest of the Cuckoo Birds has a title tune, performed by the Four Bits (which also seems to have been the film's budget).
