Vernon, Florida has about 732 people living in it and was once known as Nub City because of how many limb loss insurance claims were made in the area. More than two-thirds of all insurance claims for people who lost their arms or legs in the fifties and sixties lived there, so director Errol Morris decided to make this movie. He was threatened by the people who lived there so he made this instead.

You’ll watch 55 minutes of the people of the small town, like turkey hunter Henry Shipes, who speaks with such excitement about the hunt, saying “Listen to that sound? Hear that sound? Getting in an out of trees? That flop-flop sound? Mm, that sound will sure mistake you for turkeys. Listen. Hear that flop-flop. Limbs breaking. Hear that good flop, then? Listening to that gives me the turkey fever. Mm, I wish there were as many turkeys as there are buzzards.”

You also get a worm farmer, a preacher and a cop who is happy that nothing ever happens. Then again, who shot the cop’s windshield?

Nearly nothing happens and I had so much fun watching that nothing. What a fun movie.

You can watch this on Tubi.
