Description

Driven by an overwhelming desire to have a son, the wicked undertaker Zé do Caixão (Coffin Joe) embarks on a search to find the perfect woman to bear his child. Nothing and no one will get in the way of his blood-splattered quest to propagate his bloodline and secure his only chance at immortality! Defying both military dictatorship and religious censorship to become Brazil's first horror film, writer/director/star José Mojica Marins' AT MIDNIGHT I'LL TAKE YOUR SOUL is an unforgettable gothic horror classic that introduced the world to the legendary Coffin Joe.

 

Then, in the even more outrageous sequel, THIS NIGHT I'LL POSSES YOUR CORPSE, Marins' unholy undertaker embarks on an even more brutal campaign of terror. Aided and abetted by his hunchbacked assistant Bruno, will Coffin Joe finally be successful in his quest to find the perfect woman to bear his child?
