Made in Florida in the mid-1960's, Death Curse of Tartu tells the story of a group of young people who venture into the everglades to party. However by going there they disturb the burial ground of Tartu, a witch doctor who has been dead for 400 years. Not wanting strangers on his ground, Tartu comes back in the form of various animals who then proceed to kill the partygoers one by one. Realising they have no other course of action, the surviving members of the party set out to find Tartu's grave so that they may destroy his body, thus ending the curse.
