Summary:
The skull (83 min.) : The Skull introduces us to Dr. Christopher Maitland, a collector of the occult. When he is given the opportunity to purchase one of the infamous Marquis de Sade, he leaps at the chance.

Possession of The Skull leads to a terrifying series of nightmarish events for Dr. Maitland as he tries to keep control of his life. The man who could cheat death (82 min.) : A doctor has discovered a way to cheat death, but what he needs is not an ordinary pill ... it's the glands of live donors. The deadly bees (84 min.) : "An ailing starlet is sent to a remote island to recover and little does she know that she is about to stumble into ... a Hive of Horror! A diabolical neighbor has discovered the smell of fear and is using it to control a lethal swarm!"--Container.
