Incubus
On a strange island inhabited by demons and spirits, a man battles the forces of evil.
Why it matters
A rare glimpse at 1960s American horror daring to evoke European folklore with an unsettling, otherworldly atmosphere.
- Filmed entirely in hauntingly stark black-and-white, lending a dreamlike, oppressive mood that lingers beyond the frame.
- Features William Shatner in an early, strangely wooden turn that’s more fascinating for its earnestness than his range.
- Deeply rooted in folk horror and supernatural myth, exploring liminal spaces between life and death on a demon-haunted island.
- More a curio than a classic, but worth it for fans of esoteric, offbeat horror and vintage occult cinema.
