J. Peter Weils, an expose writer, arrives on an island off the coast of South America (no country is identified), to complete a book on voodoo, juju, Macumba, mojo and other cult beliefs, which he believes are responsible for a series of unsolved murders on the island. Wealthy landowner Venus de Viasa warns him against stirring up the natives, especially any efforts to lessen the prestige of the reigning voodoo queen, Mama Rata-loi. The arrival of Weils' daughter Sara and her husband Warren on a honeymoon trip stirs the pot to boiling and the natives become restless. The most restless of all is Mama Rata-loi, who asserts her powers and puts a spell on Venus de Viasa. The next thing Warren knows, he is both tightly bound hand and foot and about to become the one who is chosen to die in a voodoo ceremony.
