100 YEARS OF HORROR #27: The Flying Serpent (1946)

Horror descends from the sky in this campy low budget monster movie from 1946, The Flying Serpent. A vengeful man captures an ancient bird god that was previously tasked with protecting a load of Aztec treasure, and uses it to sneakily dispatch of his rivals one by one. The Flying Serpent is a silly, corny film with numerous moments of unintentional humour, often at the expense of the bird god's charmingly cheap effects and the script's very clunky dialogue. This is the 27th episode of the YouTube series, 100 YEARS OF HORROR, by Haunted Blowfish. The series highlights one horror film per year for a century, from 1920 to 2019.
