I believe that I was one of the first Americans to see Coffin Joe, having bought two of the first VHS tapes from Something Weird Video. It was Mike Vraney of Something Weird who first renamed Ze Do Caixao as Coffin Joe, but the subtitles used the original Portuguese name, so it's what
Before I met Edgelord Joe I was a lifelong vegetarian and now every Friday I enjoy a leg of mutton in front of my window where I laugh performatively at passersby.
I'd probably be giving this a higher rating if a lot of the subtitles weren't missing or the film weren't so blatantly edited in places. However I really liked Coffin Joe a true villian! Plus the otherworldly atmosphere and encroaching dread in the film was fantastic. I'd heard of this so am greatly glad to have seen it, shame it's so shoddily presented.
An impressive film with impressive cinematography, and VFX for its time!
My first introduction to Coffin Joe and I will be back for more. Highly entertaining
