that is not human murder?

I regret, Doctor...

I cannot be part of your plan.

Then I must do it alone.

While it lives, no one is safe.

My son.

What are you about to do?

Would you destroy...

that which I, your father,

dedicated his life to creating?

I must.

The monster you created

is in itself destruction.

Nevertheless, I was near

to solving a problem...

that has baffled man

since the beginning of time...

the secret of life, artificially created.

But it has brought death

to everything that it's touched.

That is because, unknowingly...

I gave it a criminal brain.

With your knowledge of science,

you can cure that.

It's beyond my cure.

It's a malignant brain.

What if it had another brain?

Another brain!

Bohmer! Dr. Bohmer!

What is it, Doctor?

You've changed your mind?

Yes. Attach the high-frequency

leads to the terminal electrodes.

- Yes, sir.

- Frankenstein!

Come in, Ygor. I may need your assistance.

You have agreed.

You are going to help him, Doctor?

You are giving him life.

Yes, but not for the purpose

that you think, Ygor.

I'm giving him strength

so that an operation may be successful.

An operation?

Yes, I'm giving him another brain.

You must explain to him

when he becomes conscious.

You must make him understand.

Whose brain?

- Kettering?

- Yes, Kettering.

A man of character and learning.

The monster will cease to be

an evil influence...

and become everything that is good.

No!

You cannot take my friend away from me.

He's all that I have, nothing else.

You're going to make him your friend,

and I will be alone.

It will be as I say, or he must be destroyed.

He cannot be destroyed.

There is one way.

- By dissection.

- No.

Not that. Doctor.

Ygor's body's no good.

His neck is broken, crippled and distorted...

lame and sick from the bullets

your brother fired into me.

You can put my brain in his body.

Your brain?

You can make us one.

We'll be together always...

my brain and his body...

together.

You're a cunning fellow, Ygor.

Do you think that I'd put your sly

and sinister brain into the body of a giant?

That would be a monster indeed.

You'll do as I tell you, or I'll not be

responsible for the consequences.

Ironic, isn't it, Doctor?

Yes, the monster's victim

shall inherit his body.

And everlasting life.

Build up the voltage potential

to its maximum.

It all seems so weird and ghastly.

- I can't stand it any longer, I tell you...

- Elsa.

And you, Father,

something's happened to you.

It seems as if a great cloud

has come over you.

You don't seem like my father at all.

You must trust me, my dear.

You must realise my problem.

One thing I can assure you.
