Baron Von Frankenstein
To know death, Otto, you have to fuck life... in the gallbladder!
Two girls? One man? He must be very powerful.
No one has come as close as I, understanding the secret of life, intelligently created. My mistakes have been few, but I learned from every one.
The medical profession would love to claim my achievement as part of their own and call it a giant stride forward of medicine. But they can't. It is a giant stride forward for me!
Make him unconscious, but don't kill him, or damage his head in any way. I need his brain for my zombie! I am sure it has the right instincts we want!
We have to find the right head for this torso. Has to be of a man who strongly favours women, whose overriding urges are sensual. If we succeed in finding such a single-minded man our chances are very good... that ze male we create... will fall in love with my female zombie. They will mate, and she will bear me the children I want. They're going to be a... true start... of a new race, entirely created by me.
Note: "Favours" pronounced like "Quavers"
You disappoint me. You have put an end to my experiments. But my work will live on. I am not going to die... in vain. My work has not... been finished. But I know I was... working in the right direction. I had... no one. Just a lab'ratory. And a dream. Ze female is dead. But he lives. He will.. show the world... my genius. When they... roll out the tape... there can be... riches... perfection. I wanted... to... prove... I... don't... regret... anything. I... tried... my... best. [dies noisily]
Note: "Vain" pronounced like "Wane"; "Dream" like "Dweam"; "Riches" like "Witches"; "Regret" like "Regwet"
Dialogue
Baron Frankenstein: Something went wrong.
Otto: But what?
Baron Frankenstein: Maybe the mixture of the blood wasn't right. You were the only one who knew about it... But maybe someone got into the laboratory?
Otto: But who, Baron?
Baron Frankenstein: The children? But they wouldn't do it. My sister. My sister! She always was very jealous of me. Always! But, we failed. That beautiful Serbian female. Everybody would have jumped-everyone! But maybe that head of that... creature wasn't any good? His perfect nose, his perfect nose, he has the perfect brain, he was the king I wanted, and we failed! We have to try it again! Otto, we have to try it again! I am going to prove that we can do it! We waited for so long!
Otto: [Otto forces his hand into the female monster's stomach, killing her] And now I get into you, I have to get in. [Otto realizes what he did] Sh... she... she's ruined.
Baron Frankenstein: [enters the room] It's not true, no. It can't be true, what are you doing to me? You destroyed my female, you put your dirty hands on her.
Otto: But you went into her, Baron...
Baron Frankenstein: [strangles Otto] Bastard! I studied how to do it, I know how to do it. You don't... With your clumsy hands. Everything... I cannot put it back. All the effort and time I put into it to create her!
[Otto Drops dead]
Baron Frankenstein: All her... inside it's out, what do I have to do? To find a new female, when I took her as a student. You know nothing of medicine, I taught you everything! But that happens when you take people who know nothing about medicine. They are too stupid. [yells at Nicholas, who's handcuffed] It's all your fault, you had pleasure with my wife, didn't you? I watched you, you enjoyed yourself. Poor peasant boy.
Baroness Katrin Frankenstein: [seducing the monster] Will you do everything I ask?
Sacha: What do you want?
Baroness Katrin Frankenstein: Everything I ask is what I want. Come to bed. Take your shoes off and get that thing off.
