At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul: Unholy undertaker, evil philosopher, denizen of dreams and hallucinations Coffin Joe, with his trademark top hat, black cape and long talon-like fingernails, is a horror icon in his native Brazil. Revered as the National Boogeyman, Coffin Joe has been immortalized in films, TV shows, radio programs, comic books and popular songs. He is the creation of writer/director/star Jose Mojica Martins whose perversely original and strangely personal filmmaking style has been compared to an unholy blend of Mario Bava, Luis Buruel and Russ Meyer. The film debut of Coffin Joe was also the first true horror film made in Brazil. Joe terrorizes a small religious community in his search for the perfect woman to bear him a child. Frightening, atmospheric, and startlingly graphic for it's time. Almost forty years later, At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul is now a classic of world horror. This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse: Unholy undertaker, evil philosopher, denizen of dreams and hallucinations Coffin Joe, with his trademark top hat, black cape and long talon-like fingernails, is a horror icon in his native Brazil. This sequel to At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul is bigger, bolder and more insane than it's predecessor. Coffin Joe returns to continue his quest for the perfect bride. Aided by a hunchback assistant, he embarks on an even more brutal campaign of terror. For his sins, Joe is dragged headfirst into the underworld. As imagined by Mojica, it's as unique a vision of hell as you'll ever see! Awakening Of The Beast: Unholy undertaker, evil philosopher, denizen of dreams and hallucinations… Coffin Joe, with his trademark top hat, black cape and long talon-like fingernails, is a horror icon in his native Brazil. Awakening of the Beast is a deliriously psychedelic nightmare about the rise of drug use and perversion among the youth of the nation. In a series of increasingly bizarre vignettes we see all manner of depravity, from a group of finger-sniffing hippies to a lecherous movie producer seducing a young starlet. From this group, four drug addicts are chosen to take part in an LSD experiment. What follows is the closest thing to a real acid trip ever put on film but are they under the influence of LSD or Coffin Joe? Banned by Brazil's military dictatorship for nearly 20 years, it is now considered by many to be Mojica's masterpiece.
