Synopsis for "Torr"
Two astronomers watch with apprehension the approach of a space ship. When it lands, a ruthless alien warrior named Torr threatens them with the subjection of Earth. Torr mentally switches bodies with one of them in order to observe Earth culture and places a device on the wrist of the other that he says will act as a beacon to his home planet should the astronomer attempt to speak of Torr's plans. The man grabs a policeman's revolver and shoots Torr's occupied human body dead. This leads to his arrest and trial, whereupon the jury is about to give its verdict, when the man they all thought the victim of the shooting enters the courtroom and informs them of the previous events. When the astronomer shot the body Torr was occupying it forced Torr's personality to return to his true body, where Torr died and the beacon device crumbles freeing the Earth from deadly threat.

Synopsis for "I Am the Fantastic Dr. Droom!"
A doctor from the United States answers the call from a Tibetan Lama but when he arrives is told there will be no payment, he must cross burning coals and face the dangerous half-gorilla half-lion Gorlion. He passes the Lama's tests, but finds the Lama is not suffering from disease, merely dying of natural old age. The Lama alters the man's appearance to that of an Asiatic mystic and transfers occult powers to him so that he may battle the forces of evil as Dr. Droom.
