Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man Page #4

Talbot.

where are you?

Talbot.

we're your friends.

They must be there.

I saw the smoke.

- What do you want?

- We have come to help you.

What do you mean?

You wanted to find

my father's diary.

Yes. Of course. I'll show

you where it is hidden.

She speaks the truth.

my son.

I... I guess

I'll have to trust you.

[Snarls]

Steady.

They're friends.

This is Dr. Mannering.

He's come to help you.

to make you well.

[Mannering]

Yes, that's why I'm here.

Dr. Mannering.

But the diary... You said you

knew where your father hid it.

Yes.

It isn't in there.

I know.

Please.

The Secret of Life and Death.

"Matter ages because

it loses energy.

"This artificial body

I have created...

"has been charged with

superhuman power...

"so that its span of life

will be extended.

"Its lifetime will equal the lives

of more than a hundred human beings.

"This. My creation.

can never perish. Unless...

"unless its energies are

drained off artificially...

by changing the poles

from plus to minus. "

But that's the secret of life.

What good does it do me?

I'm not interested

in life.

I wasn't created

artificially.

I'm a human being. I've

got real blood in my veins.

What can we do

to end my life?

"Energy which cannot be

destroyed can be transmitted. "

Well.

if that's the case.

then the energies from my

body can be drained off also.

Dr. Frankenstein must've...

performed his experiments

in this room.

With these machines.

The don't seem to have been

destroyed by the fire.

You must fix them...

and help me be rid of this thing

that keeps me alive eternally.

When you were talking

to the monster.

I was afraid you meant

what you said.

What did I say?

You said you'd help him.

Of course I can't.

I mustn't.

It shouldn't be difficult

to connect these wires again.

Yes. I'll need

these machines.

I believe they can be

repaired again.

Machines,

day after day!

What does Mannering

need machines for?

Remember Dr. Frankenstein?

He ordered machines too.

I tell you. that English doctor's

no better than Frankenstein himself.

Ho. Hum. Always grumbling.

Vazek. Always complaining.

We've got to trust the

doctor. What else can we do?

But doesn't it strike you as strange that

Mannering and that Frankenstein girl...

never tell us what

they're doing up there?

If it wasn't for

that old Gypsy witch...

driving her wagon down to buy their

provisions. we'd never see any of them.

I think we ought to go up there

and see for ourselves. [Man] Right.

Oh, they're not hurting us. It's

none of our affair what goes on there.

[Vazek] Do you want to wait for

disaster to strike at us again?

I'll tell you what

we ought to do.

Here are the ruins.

In here are

all of them.

Here runs the underground stream that drives

the turbines that Frankenstein installed.

But the water comes

from up here...

to the dam below.

Blow up that dam and

they'll all drown like rats.

All of them.

You're drunk. Vazek.

That's why I don't take

your word seriously.

Otherwise. I'd have you arrested

for conspiring to endanger...

the lives

of this community.

That's the water.

The water rushing down

to turn the turbines.

That'll make

the machines work.

Doctor!

Aren't you almost ready?

I'm setting the machines now. Everything

will be ready for you in a little while.

Yes. But there's

so little time.

I don't want to live

through another spell.

Yes, I know. But please don't

bother me now. I have work to do.

Remember. Doctor.

It must be tonight.

Why don't you

lock him up...

so you can give your full

attention to do what you promised...

to destroy the danger

of the monster?

Please. Elsa. I know

what I have to do.

But he's insane! [Maleva] Insane?

He's not insane.

He simply wants to die.

[Whirring]

[Crackling]

Frank! Frank!

[Machinery Powers Down]

Listen to me. Frank.

I saw my father become

obsessed by his power.

He died a horrible death.

just as my grandfather did.

Yes. I know.

You promised the people to rid

Vasaria of this monstrous creation.

I want to be sure

that nothing.

nothing whatsoever.

can sway you.

It is in your hands to undo the crimes

my father and grandfather committed.

We must clear the name

of Frankenstein.

All right. Tonight. I will

draw off the monster's energy.

And I hope I'll bring

peace to both of them.

"Connecting the plus poles

to the minus...

"will charge the energy output

of the nervous system...

as by connecting

the minus to the minus. "

Connect the minus

to the minus.

I can't do it.

I can't destroy

Frankenstein's creation.

I've got to see it

at its full power.

[Humming Grows Louder]

Frank! You're making him strong again!

Frank. Stop it!

Stop the machine. Frank!

Don't pull that switch!

[Explosions]

Where's Vazek? He said

he'd blow up the dam.

[Crackling]

[Screams]
