The stories

“Escape”

Thirteen convicts escape from a prison colony in a boat without any food. They get decimated by animals, quicksand bogs, hunger and cold. The last five go overboard in a storm and drift as a gruesome quintet to frighten ships passing them.

“Night Air”

A doctor treats a strange patient, the lovely Mara. She insists on staying indoors at night and keeping the windows strictly closed, because she feels stalked by vampires. One night the doctor ignores her pleas and is shocked to be confronted with evil.

“Short Cut”

The bandit and tyrant El Toro wishes to be voted for president in the republic of Saldor. He uses every dirty trick in the book to get enough votes: Bribery, intimidation, blackmail. He is elected president, but shot dead the next moment by his own vice president.

“Explorer”

A cruel captain commands an exploration into unknown territory. He kills dozens of natives and robs them of their resources.
