Cockfighter
The plot begins in medias res with a mute Frank Mansfield (played by Warren Oates) locked inside a trailer preparing his best cock for an upcoming fight. He slices the chicken's beak slightly so that it looks cracked in order to increase the betting against him in the upcoming fight. He bets his trailer, girlfriend, and the remainder of his money with fellow cocker Jack (played by Harry Dean Stanton). Mansfield loses the fight (ironically because of the cracked beak), almost all of his belongings, and is set on a rambling path to win the Cockfighter of the Year award.
AKA Born to KillThe film struggled to find an audience and Roger Corman said it was the only movie he backed in the 1970s that lost money. He had it recut and reissued under the title Born to Kill but it still did not succeed.[2]

I had a flashback after watching "Wonder Women". The cock fight scene dragged this abomination back up to the forefront of my mind after being suppressed for years. So I decided to share :)..... Thanks Mike, Keven and Bill.
