Biography

Ivan do Espírito Cardoso Filho (born October 1, 1952, in Rio de Janeiro) is a Brazilian photographer and filmmaker.

Cardoso's early work is mainly linked to experimental short films, including the 1971 piece "Nosferatu no Brasil" (Nosferatu in Brazil), featuring poet and songwriter Torquato Neto, a close friend of Cardoso.

While he continued creating experimental short films throughout a career spanning more than forty years, Cardoso is best known for his feature-length movies that blend horror and comedy. He refers to this style as "terrir" (a combination of "terror" and "rir," meaning "to laugh" in Brazilian Portuguese). Notable terrir films by Cardoso include "As Sete Vampiras" (The Seven Vampire Ladies), "O Segredo da Múmia" (The Secret of the Mummy), and "Um Lobisomem na Amazônia" (A Werewolf in the Amazon Rainforest).

His filmography also includes documentaries about fellow Brazilian filmmakers such as Glauber Rocha and José Mojica Marins, as well as on avant-garde artist Hélio Oiticica.

Cardoso maintains channels on platforms like YouTube and Vimeo, where many of his short films—from well-known to more underground works—are available to watch for free.
