Additional Information

Release Date: August 1974

Distrib: New World Pictures

This was Roger Cormans first real flop. He tried to make it successful by retitling it the more bland BORN TO KILL and pairing it with the successful BIG BAD MAMA as well as with the title WILD DRIFTER. Nothing worked and it went to cable.

TRIVIA: A Major Hollywood film in the 70s that garnered a Best Supporting Actor nomination for a well known character actor-his first of 2 in a row-had cockfighting as a subplot. Name this monumental film, the actor who was nominated and the other Oscar nomination who received with a film that dealt with another brutal sport?

Another cockfighting movies of the 80s , barely released to theaters , costarred a sitcom actors son whos half uncle directed many episodes of an acclaimed cable tv series from the late 90s/2000s. What is this movie? What is the actor and his half uncle? What show did he direct?

The first movie and this movie share something in common in regards to the cockfighting. What is that?
