Propaganda

Zé do Caixão, or Coffin Joe (At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul, This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse)—disregard the weird Nietzschian obsession with having a perfect son, he’s just a weird little guy. He runs around his cookie cutter Christian town in a top hat and cape with his long nails and goth regalia being an off putting little asshole and HE GODDAM GETS AWAY WITH IT. His movies pissed off the Church so much they required a change to the ending. A true agent provocateur and a Brazilian pop culture icon.

Rosemary Woodhouse (Rosemary's Baby)—no propaganda was submitted

Coffin Joe:

Is Coffin Joe hot or just campy? I'll let the voters decide but what vintage horror character lineup would be complete without Brazil's first big-name Scary Guy. He's the local town weirdo and he enjoys loudly and dramatically scorning God, lurking in graveyards, creeping on women and plucking people's eyes out with his long yucky fingernails

Coffin Joe / Zé do Caixão

Listen, I'm just sayin' I think Coffin Joe has Tumblr sexyman potential.

He's evil, kinda weird looking, wears a cape and top hat, is dedicated to a personal philosophy that he raves about constantly, everything Tumblr girls (gender neutral) love.
