Twins Of Evil
Halt!
Listen.
- There is no one.
- I hear them.
What is it?
No!
I'm not a witch. I'm not.
I am not a witch.
Please! Please.
Oh, God, have mercy on this poor,
unfortunate creature.
She is a child of the devil,
but we ask thee,
in thy great goodness,
to save her soul.
Help me!
We commend unto thee
her earthly body
and seek to purify its spirit.
Brothers, let us pray.
Look, the coach.
Come on!
Wait! Wait!
Oh, look.
That must be Karnstein Castle.
It's beautiful.
Just like a fairy tale.
Whoever owns that must be rich!
Who lives there?
Count Karnstein.
Count Karnstein.
We've never been here before.
We come from Venice.
No, no, no,
you's off that poor boy.
Maria. Frieda.
Aunt Katy.
I swear, I'll never be able
to tell the difference.
You were both about that high
when I last saw you.
Come along.
Perhaps you would like
to go to your room now and change.
Change?
Your uncle will be back soon.
Of course!
You'd like us to look our best.
Oh, no... l mean, yes.
Well, that is, we do things differently
from Venice, you see.
No! I don't see at all.
What I mean is that
had you lived in Karnstein,
you would still be wearing black.
Why?
But, Aunt Katy,
it's not lack of respect.
We wore black
for more than two months,
until last week.
We do things differently here.
Your uncle wouldn't like it.
He's a very religious man.
We didn't bring any black.
Well, perhaps something more sober.
Yes, of course, if you'd like it.
Well, thank you, Maria.
I'll show you your room.
What kind of plumage is this?
For birds of paradise?
Maria, Frieda,
this is your Uncle Gustav.
Do you know the fourth Commandment?
Which one is that?
Honor thy father and thy mother,
that thy days may be long upon the land
which the Lord thy God hath given thee.
Uncle, we didn't mean to offend you.
Your parents are not yet cold
in their graves.
Your room is at the top of the stairs.
The door is open.
Gustav, I'll get you a meal.
There is no need.
I'm going out.
There is a meeting of the Brotherhood.
within the last 10 days,
and each victim bearing the mark
of the devil.
This place has been accursed
with the evil of some who abide here.
But the signs are plain.
God is calling on us
who believe in His holy Word
to stamp out that evil...
to seek out the devil worshippers...
so that they may find mercy
at the seat of the Lord
by burning them!
I know of one.
Speak, brother.
There is a cottage in the woods.
A young girl lives there alone,
refuses to take a husband.
They say she has many husbands.
She's a creature of the devil.
- Wicked!
- Immoral.
Burn her! Burn her! Burn her!
Burn her!
Put to bed at 9:
00!You'd think we were 10 years old.
You'd better put out the candles.
Let him come. I don't care.
Yes, she's terrified of him.
God! How would you like
to be married to a man like that?
I'm sure he means no harm.
Oh, no. He's a man of God.
Too good to be true.
I know his kind.
What do you mean?
I can just imagine.
If he came back now
and saw the light on in here,
that would give him
an excuse to come in.
- Frieda!
- Don't you know men like that?
Didn't you ever notice them in the park
when we were little girls,
- Frieda, stop it!
- You see if I'm not right.
He'd love to find us doing
something wrong just to punish us.
It would give him a thrill.
I'm not going to listen.
All right, but let me tell you,
it's going to be hell
living in this house.
But what can we do?
Uncle Gustav is our guardian now.
He may be yours.
He's not going to be mine.
Not for long.
- I'm going away from here.
- How?
I'll find a way.
Halt!
I'll go first.
What's the meaning of this, Weil?
Out witch-hunting again?
You've come to the wrong place.
We seek the servants of the devil.
Well, you've found one.
Me!
Now get out!
Don't let them bother you.
Some men like a musical evening.
Weil and his friends find their pleasure
through burning innocent girls.
Innocent?!
You do not know
the meaning of the word.
Well, I know the meaning
of the word intrusion. Do you?
You are arrogant, Count Karnstein,
because you have
the protection of the court,
of the emperor himself,
but there is a higher authority.
Tell that to the emperor.
God will have his revenge.
Mind he doesn't have it on you!
Now get out!
Look at them.
Gustav Weil and his brave band
in search of women.
Here!
You can have Gerta if you like,
if you want some excitement.
You'll feel better then.
You won't go around
burning pretty girls.
Let him shoot, Joachim.
The emperor will hang them all.
A public hanging in the square, Weil.
You mustn't have
all the pleasure yourself.
Everyone enjoys a good hanging.
Pray for me, Weil!
That's what you're supposed to do
for sinners, isn't it?
Pray for me!
Halt!
Look at his face, sir.
He's drained of blood.
Not the devil himself
but his servants!
She lives not two kilometers from here.
You see? I warned you.
The Lord will light our path.
Let us ride!
Halt!
There she is.
Ride her down!
Aristocracy of this country is decadent.
Their whole lives
are devoted to sinful pleasures.
The pursuit of lust.
Is it any wonder
that the devil comes amongst us?
But God's will shall prevail.
Amen.
Frieda..
Their wickedness
will not be tolerated long.
The Lord will send word
to his servants.
Do not doubt it.
Gustav, be careful.
The count has important friends.
Ch. Yes!
Yes!
And sinners every one of them.
They meet at the castle
and hold debauched gatherings.
Men and women strip naked, they say.
Indulging in pagan rites.
Practice the black arts.
They worship the devil.
They're all slaves to Count Karnstein,
and he is their evil master.
They shall not...
Gustav! The girls, please.
The sooner Karnstein
is exposed for what he is,
the better it will be...
for everyone.
His evil practices cast a shadow
over our countryside.
Over our lives!
Young girls from the villages
are abducted by Karnstein's lackeys
and initiated
into unspeakable ceremonies.
Karnstein and his friends...
Maria, come and look.
Frieda, come to bed.
You can see the light
of the castle from here.
Do you know what I want
more than anything else?
To meet Count Karnstein.
Your Excellency is pleased
with the entertainment?
He's calling out the devil.
Well, so can I.
Or you.
But will the devil come?
Fresh blood?
The guts of a chicken
or a suckling pig.
The devil won't be cheated
as easily as that, Dietrich.
Your Excellency
is pleased with the girl?
A peasant.
Bought for a few gold coins.
Can you never find anything new?
Different?
Well, you know, my lord, I try.
They say that Gustav Weil
has two pretty nieces staying with him.
Twins.
That would be something different.
Your Excellency is pleased to joke.
