Jeanskynebu the audience applauded

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Freeman This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

morrison-dylan-fan Taking a look on Amazon UK for reviews of Anchor Bay's 9 film Coffin Joe boxset,I was taken aback,when I stumbled on a Coffin Joe title which had not been included in the set,which led to me deciding that I would pay a visit to Coffin Joe for one more time.The plot:Getting released from jail after 40 years thanks to no longer being seen as a threat to the public,Coffin Joe breaks out of his chains,and reunites with his faithful servant,Bruno.With prison having stopped him in his tracks for 40 years,Joe begins kidnapping women in the hope that he will finally locate a woman who will have his child.As Joe starts to strike in his search for the perfect woman,the local residence of the town begin to hear that Coffin Joe is walking their streets again.Since they have each waited to get their revenge on Coffin Joe due to him having killed their families,the residence begin to make 'death squads' so that they can finally nail Coffin Joe's coffin shut,once and for all.View on the film:Toning down the harsh Gothic Horror atmosphere of his past work,and being unexpectedly backed by a major studio (20th Century Fox!) co- writer/ (along with Dennison Ramalho) director and lead actor José Mojica Marins sends his alter ego out on a blood-drenched final rampage. Marins covers the screen in raw blood red,as Coffin Joe goes from ordering his followers to do a deranged initiation,to riffing on the most infamous scene in Bret Easton Ellis novel American Psycho (which was seen as being far too nasty for inclusion in the filmed adaptation. )Whilst Marins does largely go for a splatter approach,Marins superbly wraps up his 40 year old characters quest by dipping his nails into wonderful surrealism,with Marins using a tough B&W appearance to show the demons that haunt Joe's desire.For the screenplay of the film,Ramalho and Marins combined Joe's blood-soaked quest with a sharp political commentary,with Joe's return leading to the return of Brazil's death squad,with the members of the death squad being almost as psychotic as Coffin Joe.Final view on the film:A very good,gore drenched Horror which allows Coffin Joe to finally lay in his coffin.Farewell Coffin Joe.

patotameister Poor acting, including the extras, when facing suicide the four followers reaction was as if they must take the flu vaccine. Worst casting I ever have seen, may be they take the people waiting in an ATM or in the public hospital... no, no people in public health system show some kind of anger or boredom, in that movie you can't expect such level of expression. An evil gravedigger that seems your good and lovely uncle Joe with the Marylin Manson's ten inches nails, he make you think that to give him a caipirinha or buy him tickets to Vasco da Gama soccer game. Ridicoulous clothes, I guess there is something token from the Museum of Bela Lugosi. Yes sir, you're right... there is a kind of Igor puppet following good uncle Joe all movie long... limping as usual, as the canon rules. Special effects the kind you get in a a bar mitzvah clip. I'm sure someone made a good profit from the generous Brazilian foment cinema funds. Don't watch it. Don't spare your 5 bucks. Don't waste your time.

fuufuu-1 I expect to watch a good terror movie. But all I saw was a good Zé do Caixão movie. After all this years, its the last and third movie, the final end.It seems it was just made for fans who love to say "hey, I'm a Coffin Joe's fan!!" Also, was a body piercing studio the main sponsor? Because piercing is not that scary, dear "modified-people"...The dialogs don't make much sense and after all them you'll probably forget about the plot. Well... they make sense... enough for you laugh of the poetry attempt.Much blood, scars, a cool opening video and insects. I didn't get scared, I get bored.

calneto I must confess to not having seen the first two installments of this Brazilian cult series (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul & This Night I Will Possess Your Corpse). I tried renting them in Brazil, but couldn't find them.Still, the movie is definitely fun to watch, even without prior knowledge of the story of Josefel Zanatas, the undertaker also known as Zé do Caixão (Coffin Joe).Without giving much away, Zé do Caixão is obsessed with having a perfect son, born to a perfect woman, which he likes to refer to as "the continuation of the blood". He is also a hard-core atheist and sadist.I personally think that Zé's atheism is one of the most interesting facets of this movie. Instead of slipping through the easy path of satanism, Zanatas (almost an anagram of Satanás, Satan in Portuguese) remains a down-to-the-bone atheist, even when confronted with visions of hell and of past victims of his sadist rites. It is this that gives him his alleged superiority. He is free, as he puts it himself. Free of all belief in false (theist) morals.This if of course a trash movie, though with much larger budget than his previous work, so one should not expect to see Hollywoodesque special effects. Yet Mr. Marins creativity is still captivating, and delivers marvelous scenes, such as that of a naked woman leaving a dead pig carcass (no special effects here, it was a true pig). Humor is also very present, and at some scenes even very experienced actors have a hard time concealing a smile.All in all, 7 out of 10. But if you are only concerned with having fun, this movie is a 10 out of 10.
