Geschichte
Paul Marsh and his girlfriend Barbara find themselves stranded in the decrepit fishing village of Imboca after a boating accident. As night falls, strange occurrences begin to happen; people start disappearing, and creatures not quite human appear. Paul is pursued by the entire town, revealing that Imboca's inhabitants worship Dagon, a monstrous god of the sea. These worshippers have been transformed into grotesque half-human creatures due to their unholy pact with Dagon.
