The Strange World of Coffin Joe
When entering this world, you'll find the many faces of horror
Directed by José Mojica Marins
Produced by Ibéria Films
A transgressive, deeply unsettling anthology of grotesque horror vignettes that prioritizes shock and taboo transgression over narrative coherence or psychological depth.
Coffin Joe hosts this anthology of three short horror stories which feature a strange dollmaker, a necrophiliac balloon seller with a foot fetish, and a psychotic professor involved in sadistic rituals.
