Maldito - O Estranho Mundo de José Mojica Marins aka Coffin Joe: The Strange World of José Mojica Marins (André Barcinski, Ivan Finotti, 2001)

Great stuff and perfect film to conclude Coffin Joe phenomenal box set. Great mix of documentary footage (opening scene of acting class is so fucking awesome!), scenes from his movies and of course interviews full of bizarre anecdotes. 

Stuff with making his actresses drunk for "snakes" scenes is hilarious, doing porn in order to survive and do his personal films reminded me so much of Jean Rollin and of course now we finally know how Coffin Joe was born. Mojica took 20 amphetamines pills to keep him awake 4 days when shooting At Midnight I Will Take Your Soul. He had divided his crew into 2 units and shoot movie without sleeping. Since then he was never the same...

The only objection to this little jewel is that it is too short!? I could and certainly would watch it for hours.
