Morel, a character out of the system
25 December 2000
As the president of the jury "La Giuria" i can say that this is one of the best movies ever done. The director Emidio Greco is a genius, and his image is reflected in the character of Morel, a man completely out of the system, a cool pragmatic inventor, i don't say more because who read this comment must see the film without knowing other details. Don't miss this movie, if you don't like usual diagrams, because it makes you reflect about all life's sides, and vanity of life. The director Emidio Greco from behind the camera gives us lessons about the life, we can't miss them...

The movie that launched Mojica Marins
29 April 1999
This movie is the first of many good films by Mojica Marins, who reached a maturity and developed many topics like: life, politic and death. His style is incredibly unique; if you like him this is a Must, because all his movies have some relations with this one.

A movie that seems good
3 April 1999
This movie has three good reasons to be seen: the first is that a black and white horror Brazilian movie is interesting, the second is the great character Zè do Caixao, who is an interesting person; the third reason is that the irony reached by Josè Mojica Marins is incredibly high!

A movie that leaves a sign in your head
31 March 1999
What to say about this beautiful movie? I don't know. Three episodes, one better than another, that says to us what's the life and what will happen if we don't care about him.

A movie that reflects the life
31 March 1999
Awakening of the beast is a good black and white horror brazilian movie. The character of Zè do Caixao, created by Jose Mojica Marins, is in his third apparition (after media-nocte levrerei tua alma and o estranho mund de Zè do Caixao); anyway this is very very different from the others, in fact here he is simply an ironic character that try to explain his world theories, which are very interesting, to some directors, who ask him questions like "what's the life?" or "what do you want from the world?". I am sure that any people that see this movie and like dark irony will be happy to see it.
