The story follows two young girls, the survivors of a ship-wreck, who are raped and beaten by a band of pirate-like cut throats. Left for dead, the girls, who are sexually empowered by a supernatural being hidden in nearby ruins, re-emerge to seek their wrathful vengeance upon their predators. Violently sexual and imbued with French surrealism, Rollin's film is not for the faint-hearted!

Erotic yet elegiac, tragic and dreamy, Demoniacs is rightly upheld as a Rollin fan favorite.
