A pair of Germans visiting a remote Greek island go to the beach, and are slaughtered by someone who emerges from the ocean. On the mainland, five travelers are preparing to tour the islands, and are joined by Julie, who asks for a ride to an island that some friends of hers live on. The only one who objects to this detour to the island (which Julie explains has only a few permanent residents, and only sees tourists a few months out of the year) is Carol, whose tarot cards convince her that something bad will happen if they go to the island. The group sails to the island anyway, and while disembarking the pregnant Maggie hurts her ankle, so she stays behind on the boat with its owner. A man attacks the boat, ripping the sailor's head off, and abducting Maggie.

The plot involves a near invincible man known as Mikos, a Greek citizen who was given a healing factor and driven insane by church-sanctioned scientific experimentation. A priest pursues Mikos to a town in America, and attempts to destroy him by impaling him on a set of railings which disembowel him, but he is revived later in a local hospital. The madman escapes after brutally murdering a nurse, and goes on a killing spree. The priest informs the hospital and authorities that the only way to kill Mikos is to 'destroy the cerebral mass'.

1909. Une jeune fille, Greta, a un accident de carrosse. Elle porte à son cou un mystérieux médaillon inca. Un couple est témoin du drame et l'a recueille tout d'abord dans sa maison où elle recouvrera assez de mémoire pour retrouver son prénom. Puis un étrange médecin, le docteur Sturges, l'emmène dans sa clinique privée pour femmes pour la guérir. Ce dernier remarque immédiatement son bijou autour de son cou et il croit qu'elle est une zombie. Trois ans auparavant, suite à son décès, son frère bossu, Franz, lui a redonné la vie grâce à ce médaillon qu'elle doit désormais toujours porter avec elle. Revigoré par cette découverte stupéfiante sur la résurrection, le médecin relance ses recherches scientifiques en expérimentant dans les sous-sols caverneux de sa clinique où il conserve des animaux et des cadavres froidement conservés. Pendant ce temps, ses autres patientes sont perturbées par l'arrivée de Greta qui déclenche une véritable hantise, générant chez elles à la fois hallucinations, paranoïa, passion et violence. Dans les couloirs de l'établissement, un tueur invisible y sème la terreur.
