' Two survivors of a shipwreck, a seventeen-year-old girl and a young seaman shelter in a cave to wait out the storm. When they emerge they leave behind five wooden coffins with five wooden dolls inside. One hundred years later another couple uncover the lovers' sanctuary and find the dolls and free the demons locked in the dolls, who cause near disasters in the nearby town through the two adolescents they possess.'
