The filmmaker in question here is from BRAZIL and is called Jose Mojica

Marins.  Since the late 1950s, he has made a series of extraordinary

horror/cult films (which are either adored or reviled) featuring the

character ZE DE CAIXAO [Coffin Joe].  PRobably his best film is A MEIA-NOITE

LEVAREI SUA ALMA [At Midnight I'll Take Away Your Soul, 1958).  By the way,

there are subtitled video versions of his films in distribution in the US.

I know the tapes are available from Facets in Chicago.

 

So, and with a deep grin, we are really not dealing either with Asian trash

(!!) or with Macao!!!!!!
