(Probably) the filesystem is corrupted.
I would copy/clone the the whole partition (using eg. dd) just to make data 
safe (don't forget to unmount the partition first).
Then you can experiment with one of the copies to recover the files and fix 
filesystem; try to run fsck, or this might help as well:
