In 1983 the Movie Cujo was filmed on a ranch in California. Wood from a black walnut tree seen in the film was used to make 250 Taylor Cujo guitars. The fingerboard depicts a bat silhouetted against a full moon; the branches of the walnut tree; the barn from which Cujo launches his attacks, and Cujo himself. The inlays were created using mahogany, maple, walnut, green heart abalone, black oyster shell and Formica.
