Anyone knows him?
Anyone ever seen his movies?
Since the 90's - alongside with his right-arm Coffin Souza - that guy from a brazilian Southern city has made thousand of sick, depraved and surrealistic horror-nudity-gory films.
He always worked with what he had in hands, in a DIY-punk-ethic. Despite some of his "no budgets" films have cult following status, he is little-known even in your own country. Massive media gives him much less attention than Coffin Joe, since Baiestorf's work is more outrageous (to tell the truth, the mass media just gave some attention to Mojica nowadays).
I think Petter Baiestorf and his Canibal Filmes should be known worldwide.
His biography is very intriguing.
If you have opportunity, watch to
Blerghhh!!! (1996),
Vadias do Sexo Sangrento (2008),
Arrombada: Vou Mijar na Porra do Seu Túmulo [I Will p**s in Your Grave] (2007) or
Ninguém Deve Morrer [Nobody Must to Die] (2009).
A filthy and insane Brazilian follower of John Waters who makes home-made idiotic movies with in-your-face cheap gore, filth, perversions, trashy actors in various costumes or drag, gutter satire and homages to grindhouse or camp genres. Whereas Waters was all about straightforward bad taste, Baiestorf claims (tongue-in-cheek?) a more meaningful cult and underground status.
