Interesting facts
Bacalhau is a 1976 Brazilian comedy film written and directed by Adriano Stuart. It is a pornochanchada—or Brazilian sex comedy film—and a parody of the 1975 American thriller film Jaws. Whereas the plot of Jaws concerns a man-eating great white shark, Bacalhau centers around a killer codfish, known as bacalhau in Portuguese.
