Brazilian filmmaker, actor, composer, screenwriter, and television and media personality José Mojica Marins has left us at the age of 83, on February 19th.
He was also known for creating and playing the character Coffin Joe (loosely translated from Zé do Caixão) in a series of horror movies; the character went on to become his alter ego as well as a pop culture icon in Brazil. Although he was known primarily as a horror film director, his earlier works were Westerns, dramas and adventure films.
