The Demoniacs
Directed by Jean Rollin
Produced by Nordia Films, Général Films
A transgressive 1970s horror-exploitation film that pairs graphic sexual violence with supernatural revenge fantasy, blending eroticism and sadism in a deliberately provocative register.
A gang of pirates rape the two sole survivors of a ship wreck. The violated girls are rescued by the strange inhabitants of a supposedly haunted island, where they are granted supernatural powers to strike revenge against the pirates.
