I have been a fan of Marins films for the past few years now. I am in the US and it's practically impossible to get a boxed set of these films over here (without paying hundreds of dollars). You need a region 2 player for this set. These films are graphic, bizarre exploitation films. I suggest you see a film before purchasing as they are not for everyone. The quality of the set is good, copies of the films are better than what they ever play on IFC.

Due to the previous poor reviews of this box set criticising the transfers, I held back from buying it for over a year. However I eventually took the plunge - and I'm very glad I did. The quality of the transfers is absolutely fine. No problems whatsoever. I recommend this set whole heartedly - we are very lucky to have these rare films available in the UK.

This collection is excellent!!Strange and surrealist movies by Mojica Marins. The image quality of the films is good. I don't understand the negative review about this. We need to understand that these pictures are rare, created with low budget and exposed to censorship, and that their complete restoration is not possible. They are great and the collection is a real bargain. I didn't know about this director before and now I'm very happy to have some of his films at home. Just the documentary about Mojica Marins and his films, that is excellent, worth the price. So don't hesitate and buy it now!!

Classic black and white, Brazilian sexploitation horror from the mind...
This is as depraved as it gets in places. A reviewer from 'Dead Central' correctly stated that "In Coffin Joe [Marins] has crafted a horror icon so full of sadism, immorality and... Read more

Good movies, TERRIBLE transfers.
Those transfers manage to be worse than the ones from the Brazilian Box Set (that I own). Anchor Bay seriously dropped the ball on this one.
