Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell
A bodysnatcher is spotted exhuming a corpse for young surgeon Dr Simon Helder (Briant). Helders experiments are terminated when he is arrested for sorcery, and sentenced to five years imprisonment in an asylum for the criminally insane near Carlsbad. The asylum is ostensibly run by a corrupt director, but his strings are being pulled by the blackmailing Dr Carl Victor (Cushing). Victor is assisted in his duties as resident medical practitioner by the beautiful Sarah (Smith), a mute girl the inmates call Angel . Victor admits his true identity to Helder he is Baron Victor Frankenstein, pursuing his depraved research safe in the knowledge that all bar a few of the asylum staff believe him to be dead. Helder becomes Frankensteins apprentice, and discovers that the Baron is using the body of hulking inmate Schneider as the basis for his latest experiment. The Monster is given new eyes, the hands of a craftsman and the brain of a brilliant suicide victim. The tormented Monster initially shows promise, but Schneiders violent personality soon begins to assert itself&
