A man blackmails a doctor into transplanting his head onto another man's body, at first to avoid deformity and eventually to achieve immortality.

When he later returns to the lake, he hears of strange killings where the victims have been drained of blood and realizes that his wife must have been turned into one of the undead and now resides in the lake. He sharpens his spear and returns to the lake to stake her through the heart and bring her peace.; A man builds an automatic coffin to lower the cost of funerals. The coffin plays music, reads a service, and unfortunately for his sponging kid brother who lies down in it, drains the corpse's blood, injects formaldehyde, and buries itself with shovel attachments on its side.; The chef of an obese king finally gets fed up with him and converts him into sausages.
