All language subtitles for O Estranho Mundo de Ze do Caixao (1968)

Who am I?

It doesn't matter.

And also, it doesn't matter
to me who you are.

Or, it doesn't matter who we are.

In fact, what's important is
to know what we are.

Don't try to understand it,

because the conclusion
would be the madness.

The end of everything
and the beginning of nothing.

The courage begins where the fear ends.

The fear begins where the courage ends.

But, is there courage and fear?.

Courage of what?.

Fear of what?.

Of everything?.

What is everything?.

Of nothing?.

What is nothing?.

The existence.

What is existence?

Death.

What is death?

Wouldn't be death the beginning of life?

Or would be life the beginning of death?

You didn't see anything
and want to see everything.

You saw everything,
but didn�t see anything.

You fear what you didn't know
and faces what you did know.

Why do you fear what you did know
and faces what you didn't know?.

Your confused mind doesn't
know what to look for,

because what you're searching
confuses your mind,

and the terror is born.

The terror of death.

The terror of pain.

The terror of the ghost.

The terror from another world.

Now, you see in terror that nothing is terror.

The terror doesn't exist,
but the terror imprisons you.

What is terror?.

Ah, you don't accept the terror
because the terror is you!

[THE STRANGE WORLD OF COFFIN JOE]

A man came from beyond,

With stronger power,

Because his force is immense,

And created for him self his own world,

A world that nobody can take from him

His reign is for revolt

His orders is for hatred

And death doesn't matter for him

Man without God

Without faith, without love

Doesn't fear any body

Not even the pain

His name is deeply remembered

Z� do Caix�o,
Z� do Caix�o

His echo shakes the world

He doesn't have a heart,
He doesn't have a heart

so sad is his living

[THE DOLL MAKER]

-Everything is all right?.
-Yes.

Don't forget that you've got
other four dolls to make.

Yes, yes. Rest assure that I'll provide the dolls
today.

-Thank you very much. Good night.
-Good night.

-Beautiful doll, huh?
-Everybody says that.

It's sure a work of art

specially the eyes.

It�s in the eyes that lies
the art of Master Bastos.

They are really very expressive..

Did you know the doll maker?.

Yes, it's the old man that just left.

He lives here, in S�o Paulo,
near Pirituba, where he got a workshop.

To tell the truth, I think that
the dolls were imported.

He works alone?

No. His four daughters help him.

And if you see them, what girls...

He must be rich with all this work.

Tell me about it...

It seems that the old man is so niggard
that he doesn't put the money on the bank.

He keep the money at home, with the
same caution he got with his daughters.

Did you heard that?.

Doesn't it give you ideas?.

Or it'll be that you�ve got
such a poor imagination?

I think that I understood you.

But, S�rgio, you won't be thinking...

You guessed right...

Yeah, you're right.
Tonight is very slow.

But the night will be very full.

Come back, my love

Come to me

And all the bad things I've made

You'll forget

stay, my love

It�s my heart that...

My daughters, that's
'enough for today.

You've worked enough.
Now all of you can rest.

-Wonderful. It�s almost perfect!
-You for got just one little thing: the eyes!

That, by the way, it's your specialty.

Yes, they're my specialty

shut up, you beast, or
I'll serve you for lunch.

But what do you want here so late?

Money, old man! Gold!

Come on, grampa, where's
that treasure of yours?.

But, what treasure?

It must be hidden in the mattress!

Come on, old man, be nice!

Take it!

Take it! Where's the money? Take it!

That damn creature won't be quiet!

Where's the money?.

Enough!

Okay.

Playtime is over.

Come on!

Or you'll be serve as lunch to your kitty!

Give us the money, come on!

No, please, I've got a sick heart.

-so what?. I'll cut your beard anyhow...
-No.

-That's enough of this talk!
-Please, I'm sick...

Give a pacifier to this old cry-baby!

Come on, will you give
us what we want or not?.

Hey, guys, I found a better
entertainment for us!

The girls are here.

Not my daughters, not them!

I think that he fainted.

so much better.

The way gets free between us and the girls.

And what girls! We'll
make a great party!

Let me see! Let me see!

-Oh, great!
-Hey, and what we'll do about the old man?

Do you hear that beast out there?

That creature will be quiet
at the end of the night.

-Come on.
-This old man will be an excellent meal!

Today's the day!

Easy, I've discovered the girls.
so, I've got the right to choose the best one.

Ah, let go this cheap talk, man.
Let's take them.

Be quiet, and Santa Claus will bring
presents for all of you, okay?.

Delicious!

Today's the end of the world!

You're my favorite!

Don't be fright Ned.
No one's gonna hurt you!

You don't need to be afraid.

Come here!

Be quiet!

Nothing's gonna happen to you.

Be still. You'll love it.

I don't want it.

No!

[I Left the Habit]

Come on, girl! Don't resist!

Let's break the ice.

Your eyes... they're beautiful!

You don't feel anything, baby?.
That's not possible!

Your eyes...Your eyes...

Boys, this girl is terrific!

Yes, baby!

Thank you, my daughters.
You've behaved perfectly!

[OBSESSION]

[IDEOLOGY]

Continuing our program,
let's hear Mr. Alfredo,

who was questioning Professor
O�xiac Od�z' thesis.

[Men Who Make News]

Attention... sound.

The time is short,

and we are here to know
the professor's ideas, not mine,

and so, I like to ask him a question.

According to your theory,
that love doesn't exist,

how would you call the attraction
that a person feels for another,

or for an object, since
this attraction is for real?

Exactly as you said, my
dear journalist: attraction.

Using the question of my colleague:

Which is the cause of that attraction
for one particular person or object,

since there are so many similar?.

similar, not identical.

This attraction is due to a
personal synchronization.

One person finds in another,
because its behavior,

or because its physical characteristics,

something that he needs for perfectioning.

When syntonized, this person
feels itself attracted by his complement,

and that leads him to
take this person as his property,

with the purpose of his complementation.

But that's such a nonsense!
How could you come to a conclusion like that?.

We call nonsense what
we don't understand.

I don't see any nonsense.
The sequence of ideas is very coherent.

Coherent, there's no doubt about it.
But it's unbelievable.

With such crazy ideas like this,
and without any basis,

you'll never convince us.

Who knows if the professor really
has the proof for his thesis.

This attraction consists on what?.

A number of planets gravitate around the sun,

and the sun it self is the center
of these gravitational forces.

The same thing happen to our body,

conducted by a physical, material force,

and not spiritual, assays the conventional theory.

Our planets are love, hatred,
joy, sadness, and they are...

nothing more than the attraction and
repulse forces to what are around us.

so, our interior sun, the
center of all those forces,

the supreme power of our
being, is the Instinct.

The Instinct, like a dynamo, emits his force
and give life to the pieces around him.

And these magnetic emanations...

are the attraction or repulse
to people or objects that are around us.

And now, I finish my explanations for tonight.

Good night, gentlemen.

Image of closing.

Enters image of closing.

Ladies and gentlemen,

tonight we had the pleasure
to interview Professor O�xiac Od�z.

Next week, in this same hour,

we'll be here talking to another celebrity.

Another of the men who make news.

Until them, good night.

Don't take me bad, professor.

sometimes we've got excited.

It was a pleasure.

If it wasn't for your heated remarks,

the lecture would have been monotonous.

I still want to chat with you.

I'll be glad to receive you in
my home, one of these nights

There I've got ways to prove my theory.

Bring your wife with you.

The professor are expecting us.

For what I see, you had readily
accepted my invitation.

Excellent!

It couldn't be any different, professor.

Oh, this is my wife, Wilma.

-Nice to meet you, Professor...
-O�xiac Od�z.

As lave to your charm.

Ah, forgive the decoration of my home,

but, each one has a different taste.

It�s true! It�s very strange.

lf my memory doesn't fail,

you'd come to know my theories a little closer.

No, no, professor.
Your theories we've already know.

We're here to see the
proof you've promised.

Oh, yes! so, no more books.

I'll show you something very special.

You must be thankful of having
the privilege to know...

what few, very few people, could see.
Let's go!

-Professor?.
-Yes?.

You remind me somebody I've knew,
but I can't remember who...

The substance is very limited in its form,

therefore it's easy to find some similarities.

But let's go to what matters.

Please, follow me.

What name would you give to
this meeting of rational beings?.

Furor of the flesh?
Freedom of sex?.

Orgy of the Devil?
Depravation of deranged?.

I know.

We don't have words
for what we don't know.

I'll give a name for what your
mind doesn't understand:

The triumph of the Instinct over the Reason.

The highest point on the victory
of the substance over the spirit.

It�s preposterous, professor.

Let's go home.

Let's go!

Only if you could find another way out.

so I'll do it.

What does it means, professor?.

They won't do you any harm.

At least, until I tell them to do!

Don't worry.
Everything's gonna be all right.

What do you want, professor?.
Why did you brought us here?

I want to show you the
proof of my research.

Aren't you interested?.

Please, have a seat!

Let me go! Let me go!

-No! No!
-Let me go!

Monsters!

You're about to witness
a burlesque presentation,

but that will prove what I've said.

I'm not interested on what
you want to prove, professor.

Mankind always tried to despise...

and scorn those who try
to run away from its rules.

Everybody here, after a little treatment,

are set free from those
rules and became more real.

No, Alfredo! I can't stand it!
It�s horrible!

It�s not possible! It�s too gruesome!

You are restrained, professor!

It's sadistic! You're
completely insane! Crazy!

No! No!

No! No!

I can't stand it! I can't stand it!
It�s horrible!

so, did you like it?.

It�s horrendous!
I can�t stand it!

-You're insane, professor!
-It�s a crime! It�s murder!

You'll be punished for that!

Not at all; I am benevolent.

The Bible says: ''Give food to feed the hunger''.

Here you got one of those ways:
the power of instinct!

Where's the crime if
only a life was spent...

and other four could resume
his work on Earth?

What you'll see now we could call...

''The sinner and the Four Horsemen of Apocalypse''.

You won't believe that, just ten days ago,
all of them were distinct people,

only with the best of feelings.

However, submitted to
a series of treatments,

they had turned, as we
could call, perverted,

easily accepting what they
would certainly dislike.

What I do is nothing more than
set free the inner self of each one.

To achieve this, it's necessary to
dominate the mind of the patient.

For each case it's needed its own special way to do
it.

All of them were skeptical
and despised my theories

By the way, just like you do!

And now, they're over there!

How we could call them?

Rats?. Freaks?.

[Acid]

It�s not possible, Alfredo!

I know that you must be shocked
by what your eyes see.

Only a really sick mind could
conceive such monstrosity!

This should have cause what
you call hatred, between this two persons.

However, this painful experience
is a kind of attraction for them.

The sadism and the
masochism completing itself.

Magnetic emanations of the
instinct creating its union,

letting one accept the
other as it really is.

And doing so, they feed the hunger
of the flesh and feel happy.

Take me! Let me go!

servants, take our honored guests
to its respective rooms.

No! No! No! Alfredo!

No! Alfredo!

Let me go!

Crazy! Murderer!
I'll see you rotten in prison!

Alfredo! Alfredo!

Alfredo!

Take me out of here!
Take me out of here! Alfredo!

Let me go! Take me out of here!

Now, my dear journalist,

we will finally begin the test.

Instinct versus Reason.

Or, that you called ''love''.

seven days will be your time period.

If you win, you'll be free.

If you lose, the instinct
will decide your fate.

One of you must die,

and I think that your wife
is the chosen one.

-No!
-Professor, if someone must be sacrificed, kill me!

Very well, so it'll be you.

lf one of us must die,
kill me, professor!

Yeah. Love has won the first point.

see you tomorrow,
my friends. Take care!

As it seems, the first day was easy.

But we'll see, today is
the second day.

And on the second day, God said:
''Let there be the firmament''.

And then there is the firmament,
which God called Heaven.

If you believe in Heaven,
it can be a comfort, but, you know,

those who fear the death are
precisely the most religious.

A puzzle, for me, anyway.

Because, after all, isn't
Heaven a good place?

You're still brave.
We'll see until when!

And on the third day, God separated
the land and the sea and said:

''Let the earth bring grass and tree yielding fruit''.

''And it was so''.

Water...Water...Water...

Great! The martyrs of love!
This is very good.

And on the fourth day, God said:

''Let there be lights in the firmament of the
Heaven'',

and soon shone the sun, the moon,
the stars, to illuminate the Earth.

And there you got light.
Bright light.

Water!

Drink it! Gall and salt are good;
increase the thirst!

Water...Water!

On the fifth day, God created
the fish and the birds.

''God blessed them, saying:''

''Be fruitful, and multiply''.

I can't. Give it to her. Give it to her.

There you got... birds and fish.

Feed the dogs!

No! It�s food... food!

Have fun!

Hurrah for the heroes!
You deserve a monument in your honor!

On the sixth day, God created
all the animals and the man,

whose body He formed of
clay, blowing life to it...

and the immortal soul!

We're about to conclude our test.

That's enough of this torture.

I'll stop your suffering

I'll kill your husband!

And the reason has won again!

You're insane!
Totally insane!

But I'll prove my thesis.
I've got patience.

There's one day left.
see you tomorrow.

Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

And on the seventh day, God rested.

Open the cage.

Water!

It�s empty!

Come, I've got a more vital
liquid to satiate your thirst.

Come on!

I'll kill your husband!

Water!

I'll kill your husband!

Water!

Water!

Water!

And the instinct has win!

The supper, master.
It was cooked the way you told to.

Good evening, ma'am!

Gentlemen... bon appetit!

thy way upon thine head,]
