Dr. Hamílton (Jorge Peres) is a psychiatrist who is having nightmares in which Coffin Joe is taking his wife. Hse seeks help from filmmaker Jose Mojica Marins, who assures him that he created Coffin Joe, who doesn't really exist.

There are only 35 minutes of new footage in this movie with the rest coming from censored scenes from past films including Awakening of the Beast, This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse, The Bloody Exorcism of Coffin Joe and The Strange World of Coffin Joe.

By this point, even though it's mentioned several times in this movie that Coffin Joe was not real, he has become real. He has become more than an idea and is Brazil's national boogeyman. He exists in our imagination as real as an actual living being. Kind of like, oh you know, Freddy Kreuger, who took a similar path 16 years later.

It's also a great way to get out all the strangest stuff that couldn't be seen in the past. Sure, it's barely connected, but if you're looking for a Coffin Joe mixtape to put on with some fuzzed out music for a party, well, this is it.
