"We are unable to find the switch to turn the lift off, can't stop the dancing chickens."
OK - QUICK!

What movie is this line from...

The full line is:

We have a 10-80 out here, a truck on fire, we have a man on the lift. We are unable to find the switch to turn the lift off, can't stop the dancing chickens. Send an electrician, we're standing by.

2. I have ridden that lift and seen the dancing chicken display...
The first time I saw Stroszek, I said, "Holy Fuck! That's Cherokee!"
It was a favorite destination when I was a kid.

6. I think they used a heated surface
In the 60s and 70s, Cherokee NC was a thriving tourist trap- the land of rubber tomahawks and "Have your picture made with an Indian chief!"
I don't think it exists in that form any longer. Casinos generate the revenue now.

7. We are the poultry
We can either dance forever, or die (like the turkey and Stroszek)
