Transcript
00:00If you have nerve enough, come down these stairs with me to the Black Museum, and if
00:10you dare, look around this chamber of horrors, you will see the lethal possessions of a man
00:17possessed with murder.
00:31As this is a U-trailer advertising an X-certificate film, we regret we cannot show you now the
00:36scene as it appears in the picture.
00:44We have to tell you the story of a man whose hobby is murder, a killer who held London
00:52in terror.
00:54We repeat, as this is a U-trailer advertising an X-certificate film, we regret we cannot
00:59show you now the scene as it appears in the picture.
01:03Here was a modern Jekyll and Hyde who killed so that he could write with relish about his
01:09victims and his crimes.
01:12Clever, fiendishly clever.
01:15Ingenious enough to give us the third brutal murder in two weeks.
01:19Aren't these similar to the pair you have in your Black Museum?
01:22Starring Michael Gove, a killer who shopped for his weapons in London's back street antique
01:27shops.
01:28To experience all the horrors of the Black Museum, you must see the complete film.
01:35June Cunningham, the blonde who got to know him too well and talked too much.
01:41You thief!
01:42Oh, come on, dearie.
01:43Show me how fast you can chase me around the room now.
01:47Give me back my cane!
01:49Not until I've told you everything.
01:51I've been saving it up for you.
01:53Without your cane, you're only half a man.
01:55Without your money, you'd be no man at all.
01:58You thief!
01:59Graham Curnow, the boy hypnotized into obeying his master's murderous voice.
02:04Shirley Anfield, innocent victim of young love, enticed into the nightmare horror of
02:11the Black Museum.
02:13Rick!
02:15Why did you bring a stranger down here, you stupid fool?
02:18You know I never allow any outsider to snoop around my workshop.
02:22This Black Museum is our private world.
02:25And now, thanks to you, it has been invaded.
02:31There he goes!
02:34Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
