In 1964, Brazil's democratically elected government was forcefully overthrown, with the new authoritarian regime enacting new laws that stifled freedom of speech and increased censorship of all media. Somehow, this was also the year that At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul, featuring Brazil’s first horror icon, Coffin Joe (played by director/co-writer Jose Mojica Marins), was hurled like a celluloid pipe-bomb into the midst of so much conservatism and religious piety.

A curious blend of the traditional and the groundbreaking, Coffin Joe (aka Zé do Caixão) became a national sensation, appearing in a half dozen films, including two official sequels, This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse (1967) and Embodiment of Evil (2008), though he and his creator still remain largely unknown to modern horror fans.

Join AC and his sterling panel of guests (Rigo Garay, Jon Kitley, Alan Tromp, Cullen Wade, and Jonathon Lucas, beaming in from Australia) as they celebrate the 60th anniversary of this magnificently transgressive and daring slice of horror cinema!
