Description "Awakening of the Beast" is a deliriously psychedelic nightmare about the rise of drug use and perversion among the youth of the nation. In a series of increasingly bizarre vignettes we see all manner of depravity, from a group of finger-sniffing hippies to a lecherous movie producer seducing a young starlet. Four drug addicts are chosen out of this group to take part in an LSD experiment. What follows is the closest thing to real acid trip ever put on film--but are they under the influence of LSD or Coffin Joe? Banned by Brazil's military dictatorship for nearly 20 years, it is now considered by many to be writer-director-star Jose Mojica Marins' masterpiece.
