本部饱受争议的离奇影片围绕马戏团里一群畸形人展开。矮人汉斯（哈利·厄尔斯 Harry Earles饰）暗自倾心于“正常人”——美貌的秋千表演者克里奥佩特拉（奥尔加·巴古拉诺娃 Olga Baclanova饰），欧洲同为侏儒人的弗里达（黛西·厄尔斯 Daisy Earles饰）告诫汉斯，欧洲她只是为他的钱财。克里奥佩特拉与“正常人”大力士赫克留斯（道格•霍奇森 Henry Victor饰）两人相好，设计让克里奥佩特拉嫁给汉斯得到钱财。婚礼上，克里奥佩特拉大吼在场的人都是“FREAKS”，激怒了所有畸形人。雨夜，畸形人对这两个“正常人”展开了报复……本片在1932年发行后因题材过于怪诞而被禁止，成为了当时的赔钱电影。可在当下来看，却是一部难得的“正常”影片。导演向我们抛掷了一个赤裸裸的提问：到底谁才是“正常人”？
回复 :Wealthy Rollo Treadway (Buster Keaton) suddenly decides to propose to his neighbor across the street, Betsy O'Brien (Kathryn McGuire), and sends his servant to book passage for a honeymoon sea cruise to Honolulu. When Betsy rejects his sudden offer however, he decides to go on the trip anyway, boarding without delay that night. Because the pier number is partially covered, he ends up on the wrong ship, the Navigator, which Betsy's rich father (Frederick Vroom) has just sold to a small country at war.Agents for the other small nation in the conflict decide to set the ship adrift that same night. When Betsy's father checks up on the ship, he is captured and tied up by the saboteurs. Betsy hears his cry for help and boards the ship to look for him, just before it is cut loose.The Navigator drifts out into the Pacific Ocean. The two unwitting passengers eventually find each other. At first, they have great difficulty looking after themselves, but adapt after a few weeks. At one point, they sight a navy ship and hoist a brightly-colored flag, not realizing it signals that the ship is under quarantine. As a result, the other vessel turns away.Finally, the ship grounds itself near an inhabited tropical island and springs a leak. While Rollo dons a deep sea diving suit and submerges to patch the hole, the black natives canoe out and take Betsy captive. When Rollo emerges from the ocean, the natives are scared off, enabling him to rescue Betsy and take her back to the ship. The natives return and try to board the ship. After a fierce struggle, Rollo and Betsy try to escape in a small dinghy. It starts to sink, and the natives swiftly overtake them in their canoes. Just when all seems lost, a navy submarine surfaces right underneath them and they are saved.
