"We'd love to do that, but the Brazilian vault only did standard def restorations (and I use the term "restoration" loosely because they didn't seem to put a whole lot of work into them). And, well, the material was pretty trashed. If those were done in HD, it would take an extreme amount of money to clean them in the HD realm and there, sadly, isn't a big enough audience to recoup that cost. At least we won't have to work off of the Betacam SP tapes that were used for the Anchor Bay UK box.
We do, however, have the Brazilian vaults restored SD masters and we are going to be working on them with Lowry/Reliance in the future. Oh wait, did you guys even know we were re-doing the first two Coffin Joe films on DVD? Well, you do now... "
Coincidentally watched Midnight the other night. The more I watch Coffin Joe movies, the more I appreciate and enjoy them, that's for sure. Embodiment is certainly different in extremity and tone compared to Midnight or Corpse, but I think all three fit together quite nicely. :)
How did I miss this thread? I was pretty indifferent to the first film and liked the 2nd film in the Coffin Joe series a little more (particularly the hell sequence). But I LOVED Awakening of the Beast. Perfect acid-horror flick. I should re-watch the first two films and thought about them after easter concluded.
Embodiment of Evil was fantastic if a little too episodic.
So apparently Marins made a new short film called Coffin Joe Born Again and it's debuting at Phil Anselmo's Housecore Horror Festival in Texas next week.
So a torrent popped up for this one, his feature directorial debut - a western from 1958 called A Sina do Aventureiro.
Looks like it got a Brazilian DVD release but it has no subs unfortunately so I haven't bothered with it. I'd gladly buy it, or any of the of the other Marins films that haven't seen Eng. friendly releases yet, if they actually existed. Sadly, they don't.

First time hearing about this. From what I've seen it looks like it's a short that has a bunch of unseen footage from the older films with some new wrap-around footage of Marins.
