    THE NEST OF THE CUCKOO BIRDS

    BERT WILLIAMS United States, 1965

    Following a limited release, this mid-60s Southern Gothic melodrama disappeared into thin air but has since grown in cult status. A terrifying B-movie nightmare about deranged bootleggers, the film is suffused with a sinister mood, outré performances, and chilling, black-and-white imagery.
