The Night Turkey
Spoof of the TV Movie 'Kolchak: The Night Stalker", shot in 1972 by Director William Malone ("House on Haunted Hill", "Creature") and his friends, on a budget of around $100, in their spare time. It's loaded with people who would later go on to have major careers in Hollywood (some eventual Academy Award Winners!). It stars Robert Short later to become an award winning SFX artist ("Beetlejuice", "Splash", "Close Encounters Of The Third Kind") as Karl Kornchek and features a stalking Were-Turkey created by master SFX makeup artist and Academy Award winner Rick Baker (who also appears as the dorky date of Turkey victim 'Kathy')...

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The Night Turkey is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.
Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.
A classic from 1973. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
