Synopsis:
Marooned in a malevolent storm off a bleak and desolate Isle, Paul and Barbara seek shelter in a grim and soulless village. When Barbara vanishes amid the deformed and repulsive villagers they encounter, Paul sets out on a frantic pursuit to uncover her whereabouts and the secret that lies dormant beneath the cavernous ruins of the devastated township. What he discovers awakens an unnameable horror that will shatter his very existence and unleash upon the world a gruesome legend until now concealed in the deepest, darkest bowels of the ocean floor. None who hears of it believes. None who discovers it escapes. None who confronts it survives.

Dagon over Innsmouth - Dagon review by NP

Spoiler Alert
04/07/2015

Of the many HP Lovecraft adaptions over the years, this Spanish (though English-speaking) version is my favourite to date. In fact, this is superb, although the story is really an adaption of HP’s ‘The Shadow over Innsmouth’ than ‘Dagon’.

The uneasy atmosphere of a ruined fishing village is chillingly conveyed; the community of locals, with their subtly off-human appearance, is decidedly creepy.

A word too for Macarena Gómez as Uxía Cambarro, who combines intense beauty with startling and exotic vampire-like persuasiveness as she convinces hero Paul (Ezra Godden) that his fate and hers are unavoidably intertwined. This, and some very good effects, combine to ensure she is truly demonic.

Not what I'd call a Horror film - Dagon review by CP Customer

Spoiler Alert
30/12/2018

I found this film very boring, although I stuck it out until the end to see if it would improve. It didn't and was, frankly, a bit silly. Certainly not a horror film in my book.
