Original title: O Estranho Mundo de Zé do Caixão

## Synopsis

The Strange World of Coffin Joe  is a 1968 Brazilian anthology horror film directed by José Mojica Marins, who also plays his alter ego Zé do Caixão. The film is a collection of three short films titled O Fabricante de Bonecas, Tara (Obsession), and Ideologia (Theory). Joe only appears briefly in the role of a horror host, introducing the segments, and the film is not a part of the Coffin Joe trilogy. The hymn-like title song was written by Marins, and performed by Edson Lopes and Brazilian samba band Titulares do Ritmo.
