AWAKENING OF THE BEAST

Banned in Brazil for more than 20 years and referred to as the ultimate cinematic acid trip, this is one of the most bizarre and eccentric films ever made. A more complex and multi-layered work than its predecessors, the film sees Marins blurring the boundaries between himself and his Coffin Joe creation. A sinister psychiatrist experiments with LSD on 4 swinger volunteers who enter the strange nightmarish world of Coffin Joe, with each experiencing a different reaction involving sex, perversion and sadism.
