Benedizione mortale (1981)
In Pennsylvania c’è una strana comunità agricola di Ittiti che contesta il progresso tecnologico con le sue innovazioni ed invenzioni diaboliche. Il figlio maggior del più anziano dei fedeli sposa Marta, donna “normale”, e pertanto viene considerato da tutti traditore delle inviolabili tradizioni religiose. Cadrà come prima vittima d’una lunga serie di omicidi perpetrati da un misterioso messaggero di Incubus, lo spirito del male salente dall’abisso, che da generazioni terrorizza la regione con i suoi emissari.
