The Cock Crew (1998)
The scene is a small paper-producing factory presided over by the shiftless Ari and his long-suffering wife Taryn. Employees include Sybill and Windy, pale young women who toil endlessly at the pulp vats, and the more mature Helen, who is past breeding age. As Ari sits astride his beloved chimney, a Care-Giving Woman appears and offers a rooster to Taryn. The crows of this beast cause ecstatic, erotic disquietude in anyone within ear-shot. The cottage becomes a tropical whirlwind of desire until Helen manages to drown the rooster in the bubbling pulp.

A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
