in his brain.

You haven't much time.

l shall need a strong light

and a mirror.

There's no response.

[shushing]

You will sleep now.

You will sleep.

When l awaken you...

you will do as l say.

Now...

sleep.

There.

What did l tell you?

(Zoltan)

What did l say?

Remarkable.

Wake him.

What, now?

Yes, now. Wake him.

Very well.

Wake.

Wake up.

[creature screams]

Stop him.

He may injure himself.

Get a hold of him!

He was in agony.

l had to operate on the brain.

lt hasn't healed yet.

l'm grateful to you,

Professor. You've made

the brain function again.

Before you leave,

may l offer you

some refreshment?

Only brandy, l'm afraid,

but it's a good one.

You're going to

leave him here?

Yes, he'll be asleep

for some hours now.

Come this way.

lt should really be champagne

to celebrate such an occasion.

There isn't any there,

by the way, is there, Hans?

l'm sorry, sir.

Never mind.

l'm sure the Professor won't.

You'll be able to have

as much champagne

as you want now anyway.

What do you mean?

You'll make your fortune

out of him.

Your friend down there.

You'll be able to show him

all over the world.

Show him?

Circuses, funfairs,

places like that.

l have no intention

of showing him.

What are you going to do

with him, then?

Use him for my research.

Now, if you've finished

your drink--

That's not good enough.

Not for me.

l don't understand you.

No. l don't suppose you do.

l'll have another one

of these.

Will you please

explain yourself?

Certainly.

That creature of yours...

he won't do

as you tell him, you know.

He has a brain.

He'll learn to understand me.

He'll understand you

all right.

He just won't obey you.

That's all.

lf you care to wait

until he comes to,

l'll show you.

All right.

Now, young man...

l'll have another one

of these.

Listen carefully.

l want you to do

exactly what l tell you.

You need have no fear.

No one is going to hurt you.

Now, stand up.

Did you not hear me?

Stand up.

Do as he says.

Walk across the room.

Stop!

Turn around.

Come back.

Sit down.

Close your eyes.

Now, do you believe me?

What is it you want?

l won't be greedy.

A partnership

in our handsome friend here.

Three ways:

you, the young one...

and me.

l agree.

Sir--

l have to agree, Hans.

l have no choice.

Let's shake hands

on it, then.

No need. l have given my word.

[door opens]

[gasps]

Boo!

[laughs]

Look at me.

Look at me!

Look into my eyes.

You are to go down

to the village.

Do you understand?

You are to go down

to the village and find gold.

Do you understand?

And l'll tell you

where to find it.

[bell tolling]

[footsteps approaching]

Come on, outside.

You've had enough.

l really don't know

what you're up to.

l mean you've had too much.

That's what l mean.

l do not, l assure you.

Don't bother.

Just go home.

Oh, my God.

ln heaven's name,

open up, will you? Open up!

l told you to go--

Please!

For God's sake, please!

(Baron)

Hans?

Have you seen

the Professor this morning?

He's still asleep.

When he wakes,

tell him l wish

to see him, will you?

Sir.

Yes, Hans?

What do you intend to do?

About what?

About him, the Professor.

How do you mean?

Are you really

going to let him stay?

For the time being, yes.

As long as he's of use to me.

Why do you ask?

l just don't like it,

that's all.

Neither do l.

But we need him.

Don't forget, Hans,

when he wakes, send him to me.

What's your story?

You're never going to

believe this.

Probably not,

but l'll do my best.

What do you do

about breakfast?

lt looks as if

you're having yours now.

What, this?

We'll have to do better

than this, you know.

l want to carry out

these tests today.

He might be tired.

Tired? Why should he be?

After last night.

Last night?

He's had a good rest

since then.

Yes.

Yes, of course.

All right.

What do you want me to do?

This thing comes--

Thing?

This creature

comes striding--

What are you talking about?

This man.

Ten foot tall, he was.

No, more like 1 2.

[laughing]

Go on.

(Zoltan)

Listen to me.

Listen carefully.

There are people

in the village

l want punished.

Do you understand?

They are bad men.

They must be punished.

You must do it quietly,

carefully...

and not be seen.

The Burgomaster.

Punish him first.

Then find the chief of police.

Punish him, too.

Good.

Now, go.

Good thing

you can't hear what l say,

isn't it?

[gasping]

You are a pretty thing,

aren't you?

[girl crying]

You won't complain

if l touch you, either.

Because you can't talk.

[ripping dress]

Why should l waste my time

on trash like you?

l'll be able to take

my pick soon.

[shuddering]

[Burgomaster's wife screams]

[grunts]

[wife continues screaming]

[vase shatters]

[crying]

[snoring]

[dog barking]

[sighs]

[screaming in distance]

Certainly, Burgomaster.

Make way for the Burgomaster

and his bride.

All clear

for the Burgomaster....

Can't you tell me anything

about the man who did

this terrible thing?

Not a man.

lt was horrible.

Not a man,

it was a monster.

lt was horrible.

[sobbing]

[shuddering]

Gods!

l didn't mean to kill.

l didn't mean....

[objects clattering]

Get out!

[grunts]

l'll kill you.

l'll kill you for this.

(Baron)

Hans.

Start packing our things.

We're leaving.

(Zoltan)

Here.

Here.

Come here!

Look up here. Let me in.

Open this grating.

[mumbling]

What are you trying

to tell me?

[door opens]

[girl shudders]

Stop!

Get out of his way, you fool!

Go back and kill him.

Go back and kill him!

[screaming]

Hans, he's escaped. After him.

Don't lose sight of him,

whatever you do.

Baron Frankenstein,

l'm arresting you for murder.

Let me go.

For the murder of

the Burgomaster, for

the murder of my constable...

and for the murder

of this man.

The village is in danger.

Shut him up.

Take him away.

[birds chirping]

[girl mumbling]

(man)

But l've just seen him,

l tell you.

l was close to him.

As close as me to you.

He was coming up that mountain

like nothing l've ever seen.

All right.

Now tell me,

what was he like?

Tall like a house,

and hands as big as sheep.

But his face was all

patched up and scarred.

Now, will you believe me?

Yes.

l believe you all right.

And now we're going to

find your monster.

And when we've found him,

we'll burn him.

Do you understand?

We'll burn him.

[men muttering]

[all chattering]

[bottle clinking]

[yells]

[grunts]

Come on.

[yells]

[men yelling]

[groaning]

[creature moaning]

[grunts]

[bottle shattering]

Hans, did you find him?

Yes, l've got him downstairs.

[bottle shatters]

[growls]

Get her out of here.

[bottles shattering]

Go on!

[objects clattering]

[yells]

[creature grunts]

(Baron)

No.

[growls]

[groans]

[moaning]

[growling]

[banging on door]

Baron Frankenstein,

can you hear me?

Open the door, please.

Get away! Get away from here.

Do you hear me? Get away!

[screaming]

[yelling]

[creature screaming]

[explosion]
