Awakening Of The Beast [O Ritual dos Sádicos/O Despertar Da Besta]


A doctor uses Coffin Joe movies to demonstrate the link between drug use and depravity. This is obviously an excuse to show a significant amount of drug use and depravity, yet there is an intelligence at it's core as the director also uses scenes to put his own films on trial and to pass comment on the state of Brazillian cinema in the seventies. Then the whole thing suddenly spirals into a fucked up, truly demented, technicolour meltdown.
King.
