this night i'll posess your corpse (1967)

aka Esta Noite Encarnarei no Teu Cadáver. This Night Will Make Your Corpse Incarnate. Tonight I Will Eat Your Corpse. Tonight I Will Enter Your Corpse. Tonight I Will Make Your Corpse Turn Red. Tonight I Will Paint in Flesh Colour. "There's the most perfect creation of nature: children! Pity that they grow up to become idiots. In search of nothing. Lost in a Labyrinth of egoism."
The continuing story of Coffin Joe and his search for the perfect woman with which to continue his bloodline. Zé (José Marins) terrorises the town, having survived the attack in the previous film, aided by Bruno the hunchback (Nivaldo Lima).

More death and mayhem, this time with Joe getting to see hell, in all its saturated colour glory. This is a director pushing his characters, story and the viewers further over the edge, in a good way. The cinema of the bizarre, just got weirder.
