In one of the most haunting silent films we've seen, O Tanatopraxista tells the story of an encoffiner—someone who prepares the dead for their wakes, making them appear as they did in life—named Helio. One night at work, he's getting the corpses ready when he encounters the body of a young woman who doesn't look dead at all. This disturbs him, as she seems far too close to life to be drained and put in a coffin. When he dresses her in the gown the family had given him, a sweeping red ballgown, he holds her body upright and dances around with her. Creepy, no? What's more is that her body eventually reabnimates, dancing with him on her own, as do the rest of the corpses in the morgue. One man (Ewerton Ribeiro) lays in the buff on a stretcher, his cock and balls flopping around as he writhes! Though this may be the stuff of nightmares, it will give you all the feels, as there is perhaps no career as existential and sad as that of an encoffiner.
