Summary:
"Paul and his girlfriend Barbara are celebrating the success of their new company on a yacht off the coast of Spain. When a sudden storm smashes their boat on a reef, Barbara and Paul swim to the nearest town for help. The decrepit fishing village of Imboca at first seems to be deserted, but unblinking eyes peer out from boarded-up houses. The strange inhabitants offer little help to the stranded couple. By nightfall, Barbara is missing and Paul finds himself pursued by the entire town ... but a town of what?"--Container.
Based on a short story by HP Lovecraft, the undisputed master of macabre. It tells the story of a fishing village tempted by greed who evolve into freakish half-human creatures and must sacrifice outsiders to an ancient, monstrous god of the sea.
