00:03:14 #1 I'm trying a new form.
00:03:16 #2 A fusion of blood between different species is possible.
00:05:15 #3 A long time ago,
00:05:18 #4 Peytlo was a man.
00:05:20 #5 A harmless, good-natured man.
00:05:22 #6 Look at him now.
00:05:24 #7 He's no longer human.
00:05:43 #8 He's a wolf.
00:05:44 #9 Snarling, ferocious, lusting for the kill.
00:05:48 #10 You're looking at a scientific miracle, gentlemen.
00:05:51 #11 You're a madman, Cameron.
00:05:58 #12 Your claim is ridiculous.
00:06:00 #13 That's exactly what you said in newspapers, isn't it, Professor?
00:06:03 #14 I was a madman.
00:06:07 #15 Not fit to occupy a science chair at the university.
00:06:11 #16 Perhaps you'll change your mind one day soon...
00:06:15 #17 when Pedro tears at your throat.
00:06:18 #18 Pock.
00:06:20 #19 You may laugh if you want to.
00:06:22 #20 But look, even now he'd like to be at his work.
00:06:33 #21 My catalytic agent has brought about a complete transition from man to wolf.
00:06:39 #22 From man to wolf.
00:06:42 #23 Your crazy experiments are a disgrace to science.
00:06:46 #24 Yes.
00:06:47 #25 Those are the very words you used into announcing me
00:06:50 #26 to the faculty.
00:06:51 #27 Professor Fitzgerald.
00:06:54 #28 Science.
00:06:56 #29 What do you know about science?
00:06:58 #30 You with your hide-about dogmas and shriveled mind
00:07:01 #31 that refuses to recognize progress.
00:07:04 #32 What is progress to do with your foolish tampering
00:07:06 #33 with nature?
00:07:08 #34 I'm glad you asked that question, Professor Hatfield.
00:07:12 #35 You also were one of those stupid fools
00:07:14 #36 who raised their voices against me.
00:07:18 #37 We're, of course, that this country is at war.
00:07:20 #38 But our armed forces are locked in combat
00:07:23 #39 with a savage horde who fight with fanatic or fury.
00:07:26 #40 Well, that fanatic or fury will avail them nothing
00:07:29 #41 when I place my new serum at the disposal
00:07:31 #42 of the war department.
00:07:33 #43 Just picture, gentlemen, an army of wolf men, fearless,
00:07:37 #44 Raging.
00:07:39 #45 Every man a snarling animal.
00:07:41 #46 My serum will make it possible to unloose millions
00:07:44 #47 of such animal men.
00:07:46 #48 Men who are governed by one collective thought,
00:07:49 #49 the animal lust to kill without regard to personal safety.
00:07:53 #50 Such an army will be invincible, gentlemen.
00:07:55 #51 Such an army will sweep everything before it.
00:07:59 #52 Your scheme is too utterly fantastic, Dr. Cameron.
00:08:03 #53 You're fools, all of you poor, blind fools,
00:08:05 #54 especially you, Dr. Warwick.
00:08:07 #55 Assuming that what you say is true, how would you control these wolfmen?
00:08:12 #56 I perfected the Mandidote that induces the return of immediate normalcy.
00:08:17 #57 And I suppose that it would be an easy matter to round up a million wild animals
00:08:22 #58 and administer an antidote.
00:08:25 #59 Now, Cameron, you're mad.
00:08:27 #60 Stark, raving mad.
00:08:29 #61 And I, for one, am in favor of...
00:08:30 #62 Silence!
00:08:33 #63 I'm not interested in your imbecilate mouthings.
00:08:36 #64 You all have demonstrated your lack of vision
00:08:38 #65 by demanding my resignation from the faculty.
00:08:41 #66 Well, you have come to your purpose.
00:08:44 #67 You cast me out.
00:08:45 #68 You rubbed me of everything and I held most dear in life.
00:08:49 #69 Position, honor, respect.
00:08:53 #70 You branded me as a madman,
00:08:55 #71 held me up to ridicule with all the whole world.
00:08:58 #72 But now it's time for my revenge.
00:09:00 #73 Pay no more seat of that.
00:09:02 #74 Now you shall pay for your folly.
00:09:04 #75 As no escape for any of you, you shall die one by one
00:09:08 #76 at the hands of the scientific marvel that you scoffed at.
00:09:12 #77 You can't intimidate us with fantastic threats.
00:09:15 #78 You're a faker, Cameron, a mad faker.
00:09:18 #79 We'll have you ostracized by every scientist in the country.
00:09:21 #80 There are institutions for mad men,
00:09:23 #81 and we'll see that you're confined in one.
00:09:25 #82 You will see.
00:09:41 #83 Well, about an hour, I should say.
00:10:51 #84 How do you feel?
00:10:53 #85 I got a terrible headache.
00:10:56 #86 And I had some kind of an awful dream.
00:10:59 #87 I was running all over the countryside, chasing people,
00:11:04 #88 and trying to kill them.
00:11:06 #89 Oh, that doesn't mean anything.
00:11:12 #90 You just had a nightmare, that's all.
00:11:13 #91 But why should I be trying to kill people, even in my dreams?
00:11:18 #92 I ain't got nothing against nobody.
00:11:21 #93 Well, let's not talk about it anymore.
00:11:23 #94 Go to bed. Our work's done for the night.
00:11:57 #95 Evening, Miss Lenora.
00:11:58 #96 Good evening, Patron.
00:12:00 #97 Well, I was just coming down to find out how much longer you're going to work.
00:12:03 #98 Do you realize how late it is?
00:12:05 #99 No, I didn't. I was absolved from my work.
00:12:07 #100 We did a lot of work tonight, and I slept almost an hour,
00:12:11 #101 and I had the awfulest dream I could...
00:12:13 #102 Go to bed, Pedro.
00:12:15 #103 Yes, sir, doctor. Good night, Miss Lenore.
00:12:19 #104 Good night, Pedro.
00:12:22 #105 Dad, what kind of experiments are you doing that you need Pedro?
00:12:26 #106 Oh, he just helps me on the laboratory, moving the heavy things around.
00:12:30 #107 He's a very strong man, his patron.
00:12:32 #108 How much longer are we going to be here, Dan?
00:12:35 #109 Why?
00:12:35 #110 Because the place gets on my nerves.
00:12:37 #111 I hate it.
00:12:38 #112 You're hating it has nothing to do with being separated
00:12:40 #113 from that young reporter friend of yours, has it?
00:12:43 #114 It has.
00:12:44 #115 And I want to know when we're going back to the city.
00:12:46 #116 Very soon, now, dear.
00:12:47 #117 My work's practically finished.
00:12:50 #118 What was that? What?
00:12:54 #119 Well, that noise.
00:12:55 #120 It sounded like a wild animal howling.
00:12:57 #121 And I heard the same thing last night.
00:12:59 #122 Oh, that's probably some dog in the neighborhood.
00:13:02 #123 Dogs do howl, you know.
00:13:04 #124 You mustn't have things like that upset you.
00:13:08 #125 Now come along here.
00:13:08 #126 Even the scientists need some sleep.
00:13:12 #127 I shall sleep very soundly tonight.
00:13:29 #128 Good morning, Pedro.
00:13:30 #129 Good morning, Mr. LaNora.
00:13:32 #130 I was hoping you had come to the garden this morning.
00:13:35 #131 I got something for you.
00:13:37 #132 Oh, they're lovely.
00:13:40 #133 Thank you.
00:13:41 #134 I'll pick some for you every day if you like them.
00:13:43 #135 Well, that's very kind of you.
00:13:48 #136 What's the matter, Miss Lenora?
00:13:50 #137 Pedro, I don't like this place.
00:13:53 #138 No.
00:13:54 #139 I guess you feel about this place the same as I do.
00:13:57 #140 I'm a theater, especially at night
00:13:59 #141 when the mist comes up out of the swamp.
00:14:02 #142 Of course, it's all right when the sun's shining
00:14:04 #143 like it is this morning.
00:14:06 #144 Are there any wild animals around here?
00:14:09 #145 Oh, yes, some nice lots of them.
00:14:11 #146 How come you ask?
00:14:13 #147 Oh, I was just curious.
00:14:15 #148 Say, Pedro, what do you do when you work with Dad in the laboratory?
00:14:22 #149 I don't rightly know.
00:14:24 #150 Besides, I'm not supposed to tell nothing.
00:14:27 #151 Your father made me promise.
00:14:29 #152 Well, you can trust me. I wouldn't tell anybody.
00:14:32 #153 Well, we... no minds saying nothing.
00:14:38 #154 Good morning, dear. Good morning, Dad.
00:14:42 #155 You sleep well? Yes, very well.
00:14:44 #156 Look at the flowers that Pedro gathered for me.
00:14:47 #157 Very pretty.
00:14:48 #158 I don't say to have to give up your gardening for the time being, Pedro.
00:14:51 #159 I want you in the laboratory.
00:14:53 #160 But, Doc, if I don't keep that,
00:14:54 #161 they'll stuff how am I ever going to make it look pretty.
00:14:57 #162 And I like pretty things.
00:14:59 #163 We shall leave this place long before you're able to beautify it.
00:15:02 #164 Garning really isn't very important.
00:15:05 #165 Come along with me.
00:15:12 #166 Now, Pepe, I see you're waiting for me.
00:15:14 #167 Scared me.
00:15:18 #168 I mustn't be so jumpy. You're as nervous as that wolf.
00:15:23 #169 He sure is nervous, all right.
00:15:26 #170 I've been sitting here for a long time watching him.
00:15:29 #171 And he ain't been still a minute.
00:15:31 #172 All right, lie down, Peter.
00:15:33 #173 You're going to strap me down again tonight, Doc.
00:15:36 #174 Certainly. It's more necessary tonight than ever before.
00:15:40 #175 Gee, it must be great to be educated.
00:15:44 #176 I wish I had a lot of book learning
00:15:46 #177 so I could understand what this is all about.
00:15:49 #178 Fortunately, you don't need education or intelligence
00:15:53 #179 for your part of the experiment.
00:15:55 #180 Just strength. Animal strength.
00:15:59 #181 I lie down and we'll get to work.
00:16:00 #182 For some reason, you'll like to kick my head off.
00:18:54 #183 I come up behind her, so her leg is quiet, and she lashed out with both feet.
00:18:58 #184 I'll miss in the small land. I can smell evil in it.
00:19:04 #185 Oh, we'll just stop talking like that. I'm so nervous now I can scream.
00:19:08 #186 Now you hop in bed.
00:19:17 #187 Well, just for a little while, but mind, if you ain't in bed with the time I do with dishes, I'm going to tan you good.
00:19:22 #188 Don't worry, I'll be in bed and fast asleep by that time.
00:19:26 #189 Good night.
00:19:27 #190 I've never seen anything so awful in my life.
00:20:46 #191 What are you talking about?
00:20:47 #192 Something took after me down in the swamp.
00:20:50 #193 What was it?
00:20:51 #194 I don't know whether it was a man or beast, or old Satan himself.
00:20:54 #195 Have you been drinking?
00:20:55 #196 Not a drop, so help me.
00:20:57 #197 I'll let him have both barrels of my shotgun, but that need even slowed him down.
00:21:02 #198 Ah, you can't kill him, no way.
00:21:04 #199 Except with a silver bullet.
00:21:06 #200 I'll tell you, it was something awful.
00:21:10 #201 I don't have a couch.
00:22:26 #202 I wish I wouldn't.
00:23:38 #203 Don't be upset about your dreams, Patra.
00:23:47 #204 You've been of greater systems to me.
00:23:49 #205 In fact, I'm going to reward you by taking you to the city with me.
00:23:55 #206 The car?
00:24:00 #207 Yes.
00:24:01 #208 While we're in the city, we will make calls together.
00:24:05 #209 First, we will call upon a pompous gentleman called Blaine.
00:24:09 #210 Professor Blaine.
00:24:11 #211 Good morning, Patra.
00:24:18 #212 Good morning, Miss Lenora.
00:24:19 #213 Will you do me a favor?
00:24:21 #214 You know I'd do anything for you.
00:24:24 #215 I want you to mail this letter for me when you go into the village and there's already a stamp. Yes, I'll take that letter
00:24:30 #216 Give me that letter. You couldn't wait till my work was finished
00:24:40 #217 You felt you had to write to your reporter. Well, I just wanted to tell him that I was safe
00:24:44 #218 If you remember you made me go away without even saying goodbye. There was a reason for that my dear a very good reason
00:24:59 #219 Daylight the only fouls at night
00:25:08 #220 Good morning.
00:25:09 #221 Why all the armament?
00:25:10 #222 We're looking for a wild vomit.
00:25:12 #223 What killed a little child?
00:25:14 #224 Been looking all night.
00:25:15 #225 You mean someone was killed by a wild animal?
00:25:18 #226 Yeah, my little girl.
00:25:19 #227 Oh, how terrible. How did it happen?
00:25:22 #228 It came in through the window.
00:25:24 #229 My wife said the window was closed,
00:25:26 #230 but she must have been mistaken.
00:25:28 #231 Didn't try to take the baby away or nothing.
00:25:31 #232 It just seemed to kill just for the love of killing.
00:25:34 #233 Did anyone see her?
00:25:36 #234 Did anyone see the animal?
00:25:38 #235 Yeah, the Harper did.
00:25:40 #236 He said it walked on its hind legs like a man, but...
00:25:43 #237 that don't make sense.
00:25:45 #238 I don't care whether it makes sense or not.
00:25:47 #239 I know what I seem.
00:25:48 #240 Come on, man, we got work to do.
00:25:50 #241 What do you make of it, Dad?
00:25:57 #242 A predatory animal that opens windows.
00:26:00 #243 That would be very interesting for science, wouldn't it?
00:26:04 #244 It's dominant urge is to kill and destroy
00:26:07 #245 to kill and destroy human unprovoked.
00:26:11 #246 A human characteristic translated into animal instinct.
00:26:16 #247 Animals rather killed except for food or in self-defense.
00:26:20 #248 The eminent professor, Dr. Blaine,
00:26:22 #249 would be interested to study such an amazing animal, wouldn't he?
00:26:38 #250 Come on in, I'm glad to see you.
00:26:39 #251 Good evening, Dr. Blaine.
00:26:41 #252 I came in through the garden so as not to disturb your housekeeper.
00:26:44 #253 Sit down.
00:26:45 #254 Even if Martha has D'Arcy, which I think she has,
00:26:48 #255 her former farmer fire wouldn't disturb her.
00:26:51 #256 I have a faint suspicion that there
00:26:53 #257 is something besides my housekeeper's welfare around you, mind. What is it?
00:26:57 #258 Well, I'm after a store.
00:26:58 #259 Well, quite a normal pursuit for a newspaper man.
00:27:01 #260 An AP dispatch from Ashton down in the swamp country
00:27:04 #261 tells about a child being killed by a wild animal.
00:27:07 #262 Well, that's a tragic thing.
00:27:08 #263 Yes, a neighboring farmer saw the brute
00:27:10 #264 and swears that he traveled at a terrific speed
00:27:12 #265 on its two hind legs.
00:27:14 #266 I understand they make a very potent corn liquor
00:27:16 #267 in that district. Oh, no, no. It's nothing like that.
00:27:19 #268 I've a hunch there's more to this story
00:27:20 #269 than just a jug full of corn liquor.
00:27:22 #270 I hope that you could give me an angle
00:27:24 #271 I could work into a sunny feature.
00:27:25 #272 I don't know what you mean by an angle.
00:27:28 #273 The possibility of the survival and the depths
00:27:30 #274 of the swamp are some of those overgrown lizards that
00:27:33 #275 used to be head men on earth.
00:27:34 #276 I understand they traveled around on their hind legs
00:27:36 #277 and made our present day public enemies look
00:27:38 #278 like horticultural specimens.
00:27:40 #279 I'm sorry, Tom.
00:27:41 #280 I can't lend myself to that sort of sensationalism.
00:27:44 #281 True science, the search for knowledge
00:27:46 #282 is on a far higher plane than that.
00:27:48 #283 It is worthy of being treated with dignity.
00:27:51 #284 And I feel that I owe an obligation
00:27:53 #285 to the people who respect my opinion.
00:27:56 #286 Your angle, as you call it, on prehistoric lizards
00:27:59 #287 is utterly fantastic. I'm sorry.
00:28:03 #288 I didn't know I was getting into such deep water.
00:28:06 #289 Well, I'll hang my head in shame and slink a-
00:28:08 #290 Now, no harm's done.
00:28:10 #291 Don't take it so to heart. Put your feet up on the desk and stay for a while.
00:28:13 #292 Well, I can't now. I've got to get back to the office.
00:28:14 #293 But I'll drop around again. Thanks very much for the information.
00:28:17 #294 I didn't give you very much. See you again, boy.
00:28:46 #295 Oh, Blaine. Surprised to see me?
00:28:49 #296 Yes, I confess I am. Come in. Sit down.
00:28:52 #297 Thank you.
00:28:54 #298 You shouldn't be surprised, Blaine.
00:28:56 #299 I told you that I'd come back when I could prove my theory to your complete satisfaction.
00:29:01 #300 You say you've proven that, Wilde theory?
00:29:04 #301 But I'm here. You don't think I enjoyed your comments so much that I came back merely to hear you repeat them?
00:29:09 #302 Any comments I made were an expression of honest opinion.
00:29:14 #303 I will retract any statement proven to be untrue.
00:29:17 #304 Do you think that will cancel your obligation?
00:29:20 #305 Do you think a retraction will pay me for the humiliation of being held up to public ridicule,
00:29:25 #306 for having my scientific reputation blasted, for being forced to resign from an honorable position?
00:29:33 #307 I deeply regret any possible injustice.
00:29:36 #308 But my rejection of your theory was not intended as a personal persecution.
00:29:41 #309 I'm sorry, I...
00:29:43 #310 I apologize, Dr. Blaine.
00:29:45 #311 I suppose we all burn at times to lose sight of the true perspective.
00:29:48 #312 Well, let's say no more about it.
00:29:50 #313 I'll gladly consider anything in support of your theory.
00:29:53 #314 I'm not asking you to take my word for anything.
00:29:55 #315 Just to believe the evidence of your own eyes.
00:29:57 #316 Pedro!
00:30:13 #317 Pedro, you sit here.
00:30:16 #318 This is my guinea pig.
00:30:17 #319 Where of the nature of this...
00:30:35 #320 We've been doing this a long time.
00:30:38 #321 You may rest assured the experiment has approved success.
00:30:42 #322 Otherwise I wouldn't be here.
00:30:44 #323 What good can come with tampering with the normal laws of nature?
00:30:49 #324 A great deal of good. An invincible arm if for one thing.
00:30:52 #325 You'll understand when you see the results.
00:30:55 #326 I abhor whatever appears to be a perversion of science.
00:30:59 #327 Mingling the blood of man and beast is downright sacrilege.
00:31:02 #328 I have no sympathy for such a moral sentimentality.
00:31:06 #329 I propound it a theory which you denounce publicly as being ridiculous.
00:31:11 #330 The result of what is all in mind.
00:31:15 #331 Are you trying to squirm out of facing the possibilities that you may be wrong?
00:31:20 #332 Not at all. I will cooperate in any way possible.
00:31:24 #333 That's just what I wanted to hear.
00:31:26 #334 I've given him one injection to repair his blood for transfusion.
00:31:30 #335 He'll need another in exactly 20 minutes.
00:31:33 #336 Is this Magnolia 37136?
00:31:51 #337 I'd like to speak to Dr. Lorenzo Cameron, please.
00:31:54 #338 Just a moment, please.
00:31:56 #339 That's for your camera.
00:31:58 #340 For me?
00:31:59 #341 Hello.
00:32:01 #342 How is that you, dear?
00:32:03 #343 You asked me to call you and find out if you're returning tonight.
00:32:05 #344 It's all right. I'll be over soon as I can.
00:32:07 #345 Goodbye.
00:32:10 #346 It's my daughter and friends. I'll have to go and get her.
00:32:17 #347 Miss Anbelom.
00:32:19 #348 What about the second injection?
00:32:21 #349 It had to be given in 20 minutes.
00:32:23 #350 Well, yes, the injection.
00:32:26 #351 I may be able to make it.
00:32:28 #352 If not, I want to doubt whether you'd do it for me.
00:32:31 #353 Well, yes, I guess so.
00:32:35 #354 That's very, very kind of you.
00:32:36 #355 Pedro, you stay here and don't bother Dr. Blayne.
00:32:38 #356 No, sir, I won't bother.
00:32:41 #357 Of course, it's quite possible, Doctor, if I don't get back,
00:32:43 #358 that you could ensure the failure of this demonstration
00:32:47 #359 by forgetting the injection.
00:32:50 #360 I'll have to take that chance.
00:32:51 #361 Don't worry.
00:32:52 #362 Even if I lacked a sense of honor,
00:32:54 #363 pride would hardly allow me to stoop to such a level.
00:32:58 #364 I shall give him the injection if you're not here by 12.
00:33:01 #365 At 12?
00:33:03 #366 Precisely.
00:33:25 #367 Hello?
00:33:27 #368 Hello, if it's Gerald.
00:33:28 #369 Yeah, is that you, Blaine?
00:33:30 #370 What do you want to drag me out of bed this time of the night
00:33:32 #371 for?
00:33:33 #372 I've just had a surprising visitor, Lorenzo Cameron.
00:33:39 #373 He claims to have proven his crazy outlandage blood
00:33:43 #374 transfusion theory and demands the right to give a demonstration.
00:33:47 #375 Yeah. No, we know. No, he's not here now.
00:33:53 #376 You'll be back after a while. Why don't you come on over?
00:33:57 #377 All right. I'll get dressed and be over right away.
00:34:01 #378 It's taking me about 10 minutes.
00:34:10 #379 You at all familiar with the work that the camera is doing?
00:34:14 #380 Oh, no, sir. I'm just handyman around the place.
00:34:17 #381 Nobody, not even Miss Lenora, knows what he does.
00:34:22 #382 Oh, his daughter is still with him?
00:34:24 #383 Oh, yes, she's with him.
00:34:26 #384 But I think she's lonesome.
00:34:28 #385 She seems to be grieving about something.
00:34:31 #386 Oh, that's an outrage.
00:34:32 #387 Cameron has no right to accept such a sacrifice from her.
00:34:36 #388 I don't like being a busybody, but she's such a fine girl.
00:34:40 #389 And the certain young man is just the tonic she needs to make her happy.
00:34:45 #390 Where do they live?
00:34:47 #391 Dr. Cameron rented the old Danfield homestead house
00:34:51 #392 about four or five miles from Ashton.
00:34:55 #393 It was a fine place, but ain't been nobody lived there
00:34:59 #394 for a long time, and the weeds kept growing closer
00:35:03 #395 to the house till they about swallowed up everything.
00:35:07 #396 Hello, Fitzgerald.
00:35:22 #397 Dr. Cameron, I heard you were back in town.
00:35:24 #398 Blame this for me that you wanted to demonstrate
00:35:26 #399 the proof of your blood transfusion theory.
00:35:28 #400 He exaggerated when he mentioned demonstration.
00:35:30 #401 I told him I could prove my claim.
00:35:33 #402 I don't think Professor Blaine is in the cooperative frame of mind.
00:35:37 #403 That's why I came to you.
00:35:39 #404 What do you want me to do?
00:35:41 #405 I'd like you to be present when I talk to him.
00:35:44 #406 All right, I'll take a walk over with you.
00:35:46 #407 You know, I partly disapprove of the nature of this experiment,
00:36:57 #408 but my promise to Dr. Cameron leaves me no alternative.
00:37:01 #409 The camera leaves me no alternative.
00:37:03 #410 Sure.
00:37:05 #411 Roll up your sleeve.
00:37:16 #412 How do you feel?
00:37:17 #413 Just like I always do.
00:37:45 #414 Well, here we are.
00:37:47 #415 Oh, something wrong?
00:37:52 #416 Just a little heart trouble.
00:37:55 #417 I'm serious, but the stressing of times.
00:37:59 #418 I'll be all right after I rest a minute.
00:38:27 #419 Maybe we better go in the house.
00:38:30 #420 Oh, though, in just a moment.
00:38:35 #421 What's the matter, Grunt?
00:38:36 #422 A little heart attack.
00:38:37 #423 Do you want me to call an ambulance?
00:38:38 #424 No, I don't want an ambulance.
00:38:39 #425 I'll be...all right in a minute.
00:38:42 #426 Oh, just trying to help.
00:39:34 #427 What's that?
00:39:35 #428 Sounded like it came from the house.
00:39:42 #429 Come on in here. There's something wrong.
00:39:52 #430 I'll say there's something wrong.
00:39:56 #431 Give me a police headquarters and make it fast.
00:40:01 #432 Hello, Sergeant. This is Duggan.
00:40:03 #433 I got a murderer on my beat.
00:40:07 #434 Right away.
00:40:13 #435 That's the work of an animal, not of a human being.
00:40:17 #436 What do you know about this?
00:40:19 #437 How could I know anything? I was with you.
00:40:22 #438 Officer, my heart's getting in trouble again.
00:40:25 #439 I can't be of any use here.
00:40:26 #440 I may as well leave.
00:40:27 #441 Sure, go ahead.
00:40:28 #442 I can't pretend to feel any great sorrow.
00:40:31 #443 But in my feelings, there'll be no importance one way
00:40:33 #444 or the other.
00:40:34 #445 Good night.
00:40:42 #446 Howdy, Lieutenant.
00:40:43 #447 Hi.
00:40:44 #448 I've seen a lot of murders in my day,
00:40:46 #449 but never as messy as this one.
00:40:55 #450 This should make a gory enough story for your paper.
00:40:58 #451 This is more than just a story to me.
00:41:00 #452 He was my friend.
00:41:04 #453 There was a couple of college professors
00:41:06 #454 They followed me in here, and I heard one of them say that some kind of a dangerous animal
00:41:11 #455 done this killing.
00:41:12 #456 Oh, how could a dangerous animal be roaming around the city?
00:41:15 #457 Well, I don't know.
00:41:16 #458 I guess you've got to wait for my zoo or circus or something.
00:41:18 #459 I'll check on that angle.
00:41:20 #460 You talking to me?
00:41:21 #461 No, no.
00:41:22 #462 I just trying to remember something.
00:41:37 #463 Ashton.
00:41:38 #464 I got it.
00:41:39 #465 An AP story came in from Ashton the other day about a child being killed by a weird
00:41:43 #466 animal from the swamp land.
00:41:44 #467 What do you mean weird animal?
00:41:46 #468 from the swamp land.
00:41:47 #469 What do you mean weird animal?
00:41:49 #470 A farmer swore it wasn't human, but that it traveled
00:41:51 #471 on two legs like a man.
00:41:52 #472 Ah, he was crazy. He was drunk.
00:41:54 #473 There ain't no such animal.
00:41:56 #474 Anyway, how could he get way up here?
00:41:59 #475 We're shying you.
00:42:43 #476 You startled me.
00:42:45 #477 What's the matter?
00:42:46 #478 Why do you stare at me like that?
00:42:49 #479 I don't know, Miss Lenore.
00:42:51 #480 I feel funny.
00:42:53 #481 I smell something in the mist coming up out of the swamp.
00:42:56 #482 It's like a voice talking to me,
00:42:58 #483 telling me to do something, something terrible.
00:43:01 #484 Oh, but that isn't real.
00:43:02 #485 That's just your imagination.
00:43:04 #486 You mustn't pay any attention to what that boy seems to be saying.
00:43:07 #487 Pedro, what are you doing here?
00:43:14 #488 Go to your room.
00:43:16 #489 You've no right in this part of the house.
00:43:18 #490 Get out immediately.
00:43:21 #491 Wake up.
00:43:23 #492 You're dreaming.
00:43:29 #493 I don't know what you're doing.
00:43:32 #494 I must have a touch of swamp fever. That's very likely.
00:43:36 #495 Now go to bed.
00:43:36 #496 for you. I'm sorry if I made a nuisance. What happened to
00:43:51 #497 Pedro? I'm terribly afraid. There's nothing to be afraid of.
00:43:54 #498 There he just had a touch of fever. That was more than fever.
00:43:57 #499 His eyes were the eyes of a wild beast. He was possessed by a demon.
00:44:00 #500 You know there's no such thing as being possessed by a demon.
00:44:04 #501 That's ignorance. I don't care what you call it.
00:44:07 #502 There's something here that's evil. It's real and I can feel it.
00:44:10 #503 And I'm afraid. Dad, I can't stand it here any longer.
00:44:13 #504 Let's get away.
00:44:14 #505 I can't go now, dear.
00:44:15 #506 I must wait till my work's finished.
00:44:17 #507 Put yourself together, dear.
00:44:21 #508 I won't be silly anymore.
00:44:23 #509 Nothing must interfere with your work.
00:44:25 #510 You've been a very great comfort to me.
00:44:27 #511 I know what a terribly lonely life this must be for you.
00:44:31 #512 We won't talk about it anymore, Dad.
00:44:34 #513 I just want you to prove that you're the greatest scientist
00:44:36 #514 in the world.
00:44:37 #515 I'll soon have all the proof they want.
00:44:40 #516 I expect the eminent professor Fitzgerald
00:44:42 #517 I'm going to pay you a call before long.
00:44:45 #518 I'll be delighted to confound him with scientific facts
00:44:48 #519 that he declared impossible.
00:44:53 #520 You go to bed, dear. Have a good night's rest.
00:44:57 #521 Good night, dear.
00:44:58 #522 I'll go after Peter.
00:45:00 #523 Good night, dad.
00:47:04 #524 Maybe I had the dinner, but I thought something was going on.
00:47:09 #525 Did you see anything?
00:47:10 #526 No, not even positive. I heard anything. Just a feeling.
00:47:13 #527 That's not very definite.
00:47:15 #528 It's good to see you. Can you ever forgive me for going off without saying goodbye?
00:47:25 #529 That doesn't matter now that I've found you.
00:47:27 #530 I see no reason for rejoicing.
00:47:29 #531 Dad!
00:47:30 #532 I've buried myself in the south of the wayway so that I could work undisturbed.
00:47:34 #533 Away from snooping reporters.
00:47:37 #534 You only ridicule what they have not the intelligence to understand.
00:47:41 #535 I had no thought of ridicule in coming here.
00:47:43 #536 I'm not interested in your reasons for coming.
00:47:46 #537 But I would like to know how you will happen to find your way here.
00:47:49 #538 I found a message from Dr. Blaine after he was killed.
00:47:52 #539 Dr. Blaine killed? Oh, how terrible.
00:47:55 #540 Yes, apparently he was killed by some animal.
00:47:58 #541 You knew about it?
00:48:00 #542 I was with Professor Fitzgerald when it happened, and I saw him right afterwards.
00:48:04 #543 What was the message?
00:48:06 #544 A memorandum to tell me about this old plantation.
00:48:09 #545 So he meant to betray my confidence, just as he did before.
00:48:13 #546 I don't believe Dr. Blaine had any such thought in mind.
00:48:15 #547 I don't care what you, Professor, believe.
00:48:18 #548 You belong to a profession that's obnoxious to me,
00:48:21 #549 and you're not welcome here.
00:48:22 #550 Dad, I won't...
00:48:23 #551 Be quiet.
00:48:24 #552 I won't keep quiet.
00:48:25 #553 Now, I've stayed here because I thought you needed me,
00:48:27 #554 but I won't have you treat Tommy like this.
00:48:29 #555 No, no, no. Don't get upset on my account.
00:48:30 #556 Things will turn out all right.
00:48:32 #557 I suppose you have a right to your own opinion.
00:48:35 #558 Do not.
00:48:36 #559 Tom, wait.
00:48:37 #560 Don't go now. Wait till daylight.
00:48:38 #561 Why?
00:48:39 #562 I'm afraid.
00:48:40 #563 Afraid of why?
00:48:41 #564 Well, I don't know exactly,
00:48:43 #565 but there's something dangerous that prowls around in the dark.
00:48:45 #566 And I wish you wouldn't take this trip alone.
00:48:47 #567 Don't worry about me. If I can't do anything, I can do a small job of running.
00:48:51 #568 I'll be around tomorrow, whistling at your front gate.
00:48:53 #569 If you have a front gate, good night.
00:48:55 #570 I wish you'd wait till morning.
00:48:56 #571 I'm sorry I can't do that. Good night.
00:49:00 #572 Good night. If anything happens to him, I'll never forgive you.
00:49:13 #573 He had my business to come here. I'm not responsible for his welfare.
00:49:16 #574 Sorry to bother you this time of night, but I've lost my way.
00:50:32 #575 Good morning. Sit down.
00:50:37 #576 Who will be traveling around by yourself at night like this
00:50:42 #577 when the mist comes up from the swamp land?
00:50:45 #578 Oh, you mean the mysterious night prowler that's got everyone's imagination working overtime?
00:50:49 #579 That ain't imagination with me, mister.
00:50:52 #580 That thing killed my little girl.
00:50:55 #581 Sorry, I wouldn't have joked if I knew him.
00:50:58 #582 It scared Jed Harper so bad, he went and got religion.
00:51:01 #583 Well, say, can you give me some facts about this killer?
00:51:05 #584 What does it look like?
00:51:06 #585 No one can tell you that for sure, mister.
00:51:08 #586 Because it never prowls only on nights like this when the mist is thick
00:51:12 #587 and nothing can be seen very plain.
00:51:14 #588 Jed Harper said it traveled on two legs.
00:51:17 #589 But you can't count on that, because Jed was scared half out of his mind.
00:51:21 #590 Besides, the mist was extra thick that night.
00:51:25 #591 You better stay here the rest of the night, mister.
00:51:28 #592 I can't offer you a bed, but I'll make you as comfortable as I can.
00:51:32 #593 Well, thank you very much.
00:52:27 #594 You're in a cage, you'll no further use to me.
00:52:30 #595 You're avert without my knowledge of becoming dangerous.
00:52:34 #596 I haven't thought of that possibility.
00:52:37 #597 On your count, Peter.
00:52:39 #598 Down!
00:53:16 #599 I couldn't disappoint Professor Fitzgerald.
00:53:31 #600 Down, Peter!
00:53:56 #601 Did I walk in my sleep again?
00:54:00 #602 Yes.
00:54:03 #603 Doctor, ain't there some way you could cure me from doing that?
00:54:09 #604 I'm afraid not.
00:54:11 #605 Maybe it's necessary that the two will lock you up at night
00:54:13 #606 after this.
00:54:15 #607 We don't seem fair to lock a man up just
00:54:18 #608 like he was an animal.
00:54:31 #609 Seth Appleton started home with the jug under his arm last night.
00:54:35 #610 They found him in the swamp this morning.
00:54:38 #611 He never left another jug.
00:54:40 #612 Was he murdered?
00:54:41 #613 Yep, and he warned a pretty sight to look at, neither.
00:54:45 #614 There must be some natural explanation for this thing
00:54:47 #615 you're talking about.
00:54:49 #616 That's a werewolf.
00:54:50 #617 You can't kill him no way, except by a silver bullet.
00:54:54 #618 I can't see myself giving that story to the city editor.
00:54:56 #619 He told me right out of my ear.
00:55:00 #620 That killer ain't human.
00:55:02 #621 You'd know that from one look at the body.
00:55:05 #622 I saw a victim of just such an attack.
00:55:09 #623 I wonder if there could be a possibility of any connection between them.
00:55:12 #624 I've been telling you all along.
00:55:14 #625 It's a form of a human who sold his soul to the devil.
00:55:18 #626 In the light of day, he walked like any other man on the earth.
00:55:22 #627 At night, he takes on the form of a wolf.
00:55:28 #628 Then you never heard of any killings by strange animals
00:55:31 #629 around here until recently.
00:55:34 #630 Why does he keep asking me all them questions?
00:55:36 #631 All newspaper men are like that.
00:55:38 #632 He doesn't mean anything by it.
00:55:40 #633 Well, you go ahead.
00:55:41 #634 He won't bother you anymore.
00:55:53 #635 Lenora, you must give some thought to your own safety
00:55:56 #636 and peace of mind.
00:55:57 #637 There's no normal reason for Dr. Cameron
00:55:59 #638 to hide away in a place like this unless...
00:56:01 #639 Unless what?
00:56:03 #640 Oh, nothing, forget it.
00:56:04 #641 But don't avoid the question.
00:56:05 #642 What were you going to say?
00:56:07 #643 Lenora, I believe your father knows something
00:56:09 #644 about that creature responsible for the horrible
00:56:11 #645 killings in this vicinity.
00:56:12 #646 And I think the same creature killed Professor Blaine.
00:56:15 #647 Well, that's a terrible thing for you to say.
00:56:16 #648 I didn't expect you to join the chorus against him.
00:56:18 #649 Oh, I hope I'm wrong.
00:56:20 #650 But I'll do everything I can to learn the truth,
00:56:22 #651 no matter where it leaves.
00:56:27 #652 Good morning, young man.
00:56:28 #653 I'm very glad to see you.
00:56:29 #654 I want to apologize for the way I talked to you last night.
00:56:33 #655 Oh, well, that's all right.
00:56:34 #656 I can understand how you must feel about the newspapers.
00:56:37 #657 I didn't want you to go hang out with their punches.
00:56:40 #658 Pull their punches?
00:56:41 #659 I know.
00:56:42 #660 They gave you quite a ride.
00:56:43 #661 But I didn't ride any of that stuff.
00:56:45 #662 I know, I know. That's why I'm so sorry the way I received you.
00:56:49 #663 If you're interested in scientific research,
00:56:51 #664 I'd be glad to show you what I've accomplished.
00:56:54 #665 Well, thanks, Doc. That's very nice.
00:56:57 #666 Now, if you'll pardon me, I'll leave Lenora to entertain you.
00:57:01 #667 Okay.
00:57:04 #668 That doesn't sound as if he has a secret to hide, does it?
00:57:07 #669 I know.
00:57:08 #670 And I never before was so glad to be wrong.
00:57:34 #671 How in the world did you find your way down here?
00:57:36 #672 Hello, Lenora.
00:57:37 #673 Your father wrote asking me to come. Is he here?
00:57:39 #674 Yes, and he'll be very glad to see one of his old friends.
00:57:42 #675 Ah, Fitzgerald, this is an unexpected honor.
00:57:44 #676 My odd-labe dad hoped that you'd accept my invitation.
00:57:47 #677 If you've made a worthwhile scientific discovery,
00:57:49 #678 I want to be the first to congratulate you.
00:57:51 #679 I should be delighted to give you that opportunity.
00:57:53 #680 The things that you two have to talk over away over my head,
00:57:56 #681 so I'll leave you alone.
00:57:57 #682 Oh, now don't run away.
00:57:59 #683 I promise to limit myself to words of two syllables.
00:58:02 #684 Let it take all the fun out of the discussion.
00:58:04 #685 I'll see you after a while.
00:58:05 #686 Thanks.
00:58:06 #687 You want to go to the lab?
00:58:07 #688 You wish.
00:58:20 #689 Very secretive about your work.
00:58:22 #690 I have to be to keep out intruders.
00:58:25 #691 You seem to be excellently equipped.
00:58:27 #692 Now, good tools are the first requisite of good work.
00:58:29 #693 Sit down, Professor.
00:58:30 #694 Thanks.
00:58:39 #695 I've discovered that certain extremely volatile elements
00:58:42 #696 in the blood, little more than particles
00:58:45 #697 of electrical energy, are the source
00:58:47 #698 of all physical growth and mentality
00:58:50 #699 by exciting the various glands and brain cells.
00:58:54 #700 I've learned how to extract and concentrate these elements
00:58:58 #701 from the blood of various animals.
00:59:01 #702 I can control evolution.
00:59:03 #703 I've discovered the source of life.
00:59:06 #704 You're crazy.
00:59:13 #705 Familiar ring.
00:59:15 #706 You tell the newspapers I was crazy once, didn't you?
00:59:19 #707 I didn't know that you invited me here
00:59:20 #708 to reopen an old controversy that was very
00:59:22 #709 disagreeable to all concerned.
00:59:25 #710 I came with the hope that you'd
00:59:26 #711 abandon impossible theories and accomplish something worthy
00:59:29 #712 of consideration.
00:59:31 #713 And I suppose you feel yourself fully competent
00:59:33 #714 to judge my accomplishments.
00:59:36 #715 You and your hidebound associates,
00:59:38 #716 Hatfield Wally can blame.
00:59:42 #717 They're not blame.
00:59:45 #718 He no longer is passing judgment on my sanity.
00:59:51 #719 I believe you know something about Blaine's death.
00:59:55 #720 You were at his house.
00:59:57 #721 If you talk to him on the telephone
00:59:59 #722 before I came to your house, did he say then
01:00:02 #723 that he was in any danger of losing his life?
01:00:05 #724 No.
01:00:07 #725 Nothing threatened him at that time.
01:00:09 #726 And I was with you when he was killed.
01:00:13 #727 You pride yourself on not indulging in fantastic theories.
01:00:16 #728 What proof have you that I was in any way
01:00:18 #729 implicated in Blaine's death?
01:00:21 #730 I have no definite proof.
01:00:23 #731 You'll accuse me of being crazy of what I claim
01:00:25 #732 to have accomplished with this apparatus.
01:00:28 #733 That I can give you overwhelming proof of what I say.
01:00:32 #734 I can inject into your veins a substance that will give you the strength of ten men.
01:00:38 #735 Or, following the line of evolution, how would you like a pair of donkey's ears?
01:00:43 #736 That'd go well with your type of mentality.
01:00:47 #737 It certainly will not be the subject for any of your experiments.
01:00:51 #738 But I'm afraid it's useless for us to continue this discussion any further.
01:00:54 #739 You're not leaving, are you?
01:00:55 #740 I see no reason for staying. Open that secret panel.
01:00:58 #741 So you don't care to stay and be convinced that you were wrong?
01:01:02 #742 I don't care to be ridiculed by a charlatan.
01:01:06 #743 Ah, ridicule. That isn't pleasant, is it?
01:01:10 #744 I know from experience.
01:01:12 #745 I have nothing to do with that.
01:01:14 #746 It wasn't my fault if the public treated your crazy theories
01:01:18 #747 for the ridicule we deserved.
01:01:20 #748 Would you do me a favor?
01:01:31 #749 What is it?
01:01:32 #750 I have to send my hired man to town.
01:01:34 #751 You might take him with you.
01:01:36 #752 with you all right I can do that without any trouble oh thank you so much if you
01:01:42 #753 wait at the car I'll send him out to you in a few minutes I give him a copy of
01:01:59 #754 don't keep the professor Fitzgerald waiting I should have known this trip would
01:02:03 #755 be a waste of time I still hope to give you proof that you can't ignore remember
01:02:11 #756 me to have to you wouldn't want it when you see them again
01:02:14 #757 why did Professor Fitzgerald leave so soon he wasn't impressed by the
01:02:31 #758 possibilities of my line of research. Oh don't be disappointed. There's no credit to his intelligence.
01:02:36 #759 You're a great scientist and someday you're going to startle the world. All right
01:02:41 #760 dear I'll startle the world. I can't move it there. Where can we take it?
01:05:54 #761 Take him over to my place. The old dang field house is handier. We'll take it there.
01:05:58 #762 I don't know how badly he's hurt. Why don't you men go for a doctor? Come on give me a hand.
01:06:02 #763 Take it easy. You know I don't like eat alone. I'm not very hungry. You go ahead with your meal.
01:06:17 #764 Are you feeling discouraged because Professor Fitzgerald was unsympathetic?
01:06:21 #765 Fitzgerald's opinion is of very little value.
01:06:24 #766 Kill her again.
01:06:25 #767 I'll answer the door.
01:06:26 #768 Come on in.
01:06:30 #769 Tom, what happened?
01:06:39 #770 I found Professor Fitzgerald badly hurt.
01:06:41 #771 Bring him in.
01:06:43 #772 Take him upstairs.
01:06:45 #773 He's another victim of that mysterious werewolf or whatever it is.
01:06:50 #774 He's head up there.
01:07:23 #775 One of the men went after a doctor. He should be here before long.
01:07:30 #776 There's nothing more we can do here, so we'll keep hunting for that killer.
01:07:34 #777 Killer, you don't need to come down with us, ma'am.
01:07:37 #778 We can find our way out.
01:07:40 #779 Good evening, sir.
01:07:42 #780 That devil got another victim.
01:07:44 #781 Yes, so I see.
01:07:51 #782 I was surprised to see Professor Fitzgerald
01:07:54 #783 in this neighborhood.
01:07:55 #784 He came to see me.
01:07:58 #785 Not that beauty, Hutt.
01:07:59 #786 I don't know yet.
01:08:00 #787 We'll find out as soon as the doctor gets here.
01:08:02 #788 When he regains consciousness,
01:08:04 #789 we'll find out who or what has committed
01:08:06 #790 these horrible killings.
01:08:09 #791 Yes.
01:08:11 #792 It'll be very interesting to hear what he has to say.
01:08:44 #793 Since this awful thing happened to him,
01:08:46 #794 I can't feel any resentment over the way he treated you.
01:08:49 #795 Did you quarrel with him?
01:08:50 #796 Yes, we quarreled.
01:08:53 #797 So I suppose you think that I went after him
01:08:54 #798 and dragged him out of the car.
01:08:56 #799 Dad.
01:08:57 #800 Newspaper training seems to be the suspicious nature.
01:09:00 #801 You wouldn't try to antagonize him.
01:09:21 #802 I wasn't trying to antagonize him.
01:09:22 #803 He didn't give me a chance to finish.
01:09:24 #804 I was just going to ask him if anyone was with Fitzgerald
01:09:26 #805 when he left here.
01:09:27 #806 Well, I can answer that.
01:09:28 #807 Peter was with him.
01:09:30 #808 Peter?
01:09:31 #809 Yes, he drove him into town.
01:09:33 #810 But surely you don't think that.
01:09:34 #811 I don't know what to think.
01:09:36 #812 But I will know as soon as Fitzgerald comes too.
01:09:39 #813 I'm inclined to agree with Dad about your imagination.
01:09:41 #814 It's fantastic. Maybe so.
01:09:43 #815 But didn't it strike you funny that we didn't find
01:09:45 #816 Peter all around when we found Fitzgerald?
01:09:48 #817 Look, darling, please don't snap at me just
01:09:49 #818 for trying to add things up.
01:09:52 #819 I'm sorry.
01:10:08 #820 He's still unconscious.
01:10:09 #821 Oh, he must regain consciousness
01:10:11 #822 even for a few minutes.
01:10:12 #823 So much depends upon...
01:10:15 #824 That must be the doctor.
01:10:17 #825 I'll go down with you.
01:10:35 #826 Oh, Doctor, I'm glad you got here.
01:10:37 #827 I'm glad to get inside.
01:10:38 #828 There's a humdinger of a storm coming up. Wait a minute.
01:10:41 #829 Upstairs.
01:10:42 #830 Oh, good evening, Doctor.
01:10:43 #831 Will you go right on up?
01:10:45 #832 You stay down here, dear. There's nothing you can do.
01:10:51 #833 I hate to leave you, but I must question
01:10:53 #834 Miss Gerald as soon as he's able to talk.
01:11:03 #835 I reckon it's a little late for me to help.
01:11:05 #836 The man's dead.
01:11:08 #837 Dead?
01:11:09 #838 Yes, that's too bad.
01:11:11 #839 We were hoping you'd throw some light on a matter of great importance.
01:11:15 #840 Well, I'll be getting back to town before this storm gets worse.
01:11:19 #841 I'll send the coroner out.
01:12:50 #842 I can't be bothered with any more of your questions.
01:12:51 #843 You're making yourself very unpleasant.
01:13:02 #844 I haven't even started yet to be unpleasant.
01:13:04 #845 If my hunch is correct, I'll prove you guilty of murder.
01:13:06 #846 And in the meantime, I'll get the nore out of this manhouse.
01:13:09 #847 You will prove nothing. My daughter stays here with me.
