The Naked Witch
1961 · Movie · 59 min. · United States
A university student (Robert Short) is researching his thesis on the "thoroughly German" villages of modern-day central Texas. He's on his way to Luckenbach - where people speak German more often than English - when his car runs out of gas. He walks into town and meets Kirska Schöennig (Jo Maryman), who takes him to the Schöennig Inn, the hotel run by her grandfather, Hans. While none of the older residents of the town will talk to the student about the "Luckenbach Witch," Kirska loans him a book about her. Learning from the book that the witch is buried near the inn, the student goes to the cemetery and opens her shallow grave by hand (Wikipedia.org).
