A Gore Thriller by Francisco Cavalcanti and José Mojica Marins
claudio_carvalho19 August 2011
In São Paulo, Alberto is an insane and sadistic man that kills women and lives with his mother that covers all his mess. When he kills his mother's employee Eliana, stabbing her in the bathtub, they bury her in the backyard of their house. Eliana's fiancé unsuccessfully seeks her out and when Alberto's mother advertises that she needs a driver, he applies for the job to sneak around the real estate trying to find Eliana,

"A Hora do Medo" is a gore thriller by Francisco Cavalcanti and José Mojica Marins. The original story directed by Francisco Cavalcanti had explicit sex and consequently problems with the censorship. Francisco Cavalcanti invited José Mojica "Coffin Joe" Marins to replace the pornographic sequences by violence and gore. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "A Hora do Medo" ("The Hour of the Fear")
