I love watching VHS recordings of broadcast movies with commercials, I'm also Portuguese, and this is one of my favorite Halloween horror movies so I find this video hilarious.
It's a broadcast of the 1995 film Jack-O on "Cine Trash", a hosted horror movie show that only lasted a year (1996-1997) and aired on the Brazilian TV network Rede Bandeirantes, or simply known as Band. The show was hosted by José Mojica Marins as "Zé do Caixão" aka Coffin Joe who presented horror/trash/low budget films from the 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, and 1990's including many great classics of the genre. Hell Business has a list of all films that aired on Cine Trash.
Accompanied by his Pombas Giras (Cute Doves), Coffin Joe would introduce the audience to the film to be shown but not before casting the "Plague of the Day", which dared the viewer to change the channel or turn off the tv. The show aired daily (Monday through Friday afternoons) at first. After eight months, it moved to nights, but in the new version Mojica continued as host for only some weeks.
The first video below contains the opening of Cine Trash and intro by Coffin Joe, just to see how the show started, below that it's followed by the TVrip broadcast video (both spoken in Brazilian Portuguese, sorry no English subtitles). I'm not sure if this intro was part of the broadcast, there is no opening credits or intro in the broadcast video. They were uploaded by YouTube channel Band Cine Trash where you can watch more Cine Trash intros and promos featuring Coffin Joe.
That's a Cine Trash Coffin Joe poster and Brazilian Jack-O (1995) VHS cover at the top of the post and newspaper ads and DVD cover at the bottom.
