If you’re going to get a hankering for a good black-and-white horror flick, just after midnight in that time that bridges Friday and Saturday is as good a time to get it. The folks running the Independent Film Channel certainly get it, because they had the presence of mind to present This Night I’ll Possess Your Corpse, the subtitled 1967 sequel to At Midnight I’ll Take Your Soul by Brazilian macabre master Jose Mojica Marins.
This one’s even better than At Midnight because Marins demonstrates growth as a filmmaker – which basically means it’s even more Felliniesque, there’s considerably more screaming and cheesecake, the women are hotter, and Zé now has a hunchbacked assistant named Bruno.
