What is this plant? I found it in the woods of Kentucky.

That's not a plant. You may want to fix the URL.

That looks like Arum Italicum, aka Lords and Ladies. I have it growing in my yard, but many people consider it a weed. It is poisonous, as I recall, but I've never had any children or pets eat any of it. I think it's quite pretty.

Kind of looks like a Arisaema triphyllum.

It's amazing how similar Arum Italicum and Arisaema Triphyllum look... And also it's amazing how they share the same poisonous component: calcium oxalate. Are they related?

Arum was my first thought as well ...

Caution! These berries are very poisonous!
