This picks up where the previous film (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul) left off.
Coffin Joe (Jose Mojica Marins) is still looking for the perfect woman to give him children so his legacy can live on forever. He and his deformed hunchback servent Bruno (Jose Lobo) kidnap six women from a small town and subject them to various tortures in order to find the pefect woman.
Only one of the women survives this ordeal, but Joe decides that she is not a superior woman and therefore cannot have his children. He finds a beautiful new arrival in town, Laura (Tina Wohlers) to be the perfect woman and she feels the same about Joe.
This causes problems as Laura is the daughter of a high ranking official. The official hates Joe and hires men to seek him out and kill him.
This is a top notch horror effort and it even contains the color sequence when Joe has a nightmare about being in Hell. The print here is beautiful and also subtitled in English.
Marens had a unique approach to horror films, and I really haven't seen any of his horror films I didn't enjoy. This is a bizarre and wonderful horror trip with a lot of imagery that you'll not soon forget.
I saw this on a Sinister Drive-In Double Feature disc with the first film and it made for a hell of a night of viewing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
