Cows

About This Movie

So, 'Cows' is an interesting piece from '72 that dives into the quirks of human relationships—or the lack thereof. It’s a TV movie, so the pacing is a bit slower, allowing you to really soak in the atmosphere. Geraldine's accident leads her to this odd family, where one member’s preference for cows over people adds a bizarre yet thought-provoking layer to the narrative. The performances feel genuine, almost raw, and they really ground the odd premise in a sense of reality. The practical effects are minimal but effective, adding to that eerie, off-kilter vibe. It’s not your typical drama, and maybe that's what makes it stand out; it lingers in your mind long after the credits roll.

'Cows' has seen limited releases over the years, primarily on television and a few obscure VHS editions. Its scarcity makes it an intriguing find for collectors interested in offbeat TV films. The unique premise and character-driven story attract a niche audience, often leading to discussions about its themes and performances. This film may not pop up often, but when it does, it’s usually a conversation starter among collectors who appreciate unique narratives.
