Bacalhau (lit. 'Codfish' or 'Cod') 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.[2][3][4] Whereas the plot of Jaws concerns a man-eating great white shark, Bacalhau centers around a killer codfish,[5] known as bacalhau in Portuguese.[6]
Bacalhau stars Hélio Souto, Dionísio Azevedo and Maurício do Valle.
