This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse (Portuguese: Esta Noite Encarnarei no Teu Cadáver) is a 1967 Brazilian horror film directed by José Mojica Marins.

Having been absolved of his previous crimes and murders, this time he is even more determined to find the "perfect" woman with whom to sire a son of superior lineage, for his singular, obsessive desire for the "continuity of blood".

Assisted by his gaunt, hunchbacked, facially disfigured servant Bruno, he kidnaps six beautiful women the first night he returns to town.

When the woman named Marcia remains proudly unaffected while the others scream and beg to the terrors they are submitted into, Coffin Joe retains her as his chosen and imprisons the other five in a pit below his bedroom, where he releases venomous snakes to kill them.

After this incident, the village receives the visit of the local colonel's daughter Laura, who soon catches the attention of Coffin Joe.

Feeling guilty for have killed an unborn child, he eventually has a horrible nightmare where is he dragged to a graveyard and pulled into Hell.

Brazilian censors forced director and star José Mojica Marins to recut the ending of This Night I'll Possess Your Corpse so that Coffin Joe comes to believe in the existence and authority of God, and repents.
