00:02:55The following report to the Royal Geological Society by the undersigned Alexander Saxton
00:03:03is a true and faithful account of events that befell the Society's expedition in Manchuria.
00:03:12As the leader of the expedition, I must accept responsibility for its ending in disaster.
00:03:20But I will leave to the judgment of the Honorable Members
00:03:24the decision as to where the blame for the catastrophe lies.

00:05:47I'm sorry, there isn't a seat left.
00:05:49My name is Saxton, Alexander Saxton.
00:05:52If you will check, you will find a telegram I sent you three weeks ago
00:05:56instructing you to reserve accommodation for me.
00:05:59There's nothing I can do.
00:06:02Hello?
00:06:04Yes.
00:06:07Yes.
00:06:08Well, well, look who's here.
00:06:10Professor Saxton, I presume?
00:06:12Dr. Wells.
00:06:14And what are you doing in Shanghai?
00:06:16I've asked you the same thing.
00:06:17Oh, I'm just collating a few specimens.
00:06:19Miss Jones, let me introduce Professor Alexander Saxton.
00:06:23He dabbles in fossils and bones.
00:06:25Glad to meet you, Professor.
00:06:27How do you do?
00:06:28Miss Jones has been assisting me.
00:06:30Bacteriology, excellent technician.
00:06:32For a woman, he means.
00:06:49How do you do?
00:06:50Good.
00:06:51How are you?
00:06:52Good.
00:06:53You?
00:06:54Good.
00:06:58Hi, sir.
00:06:59Hi.
00:07:15Excuse me.
00:07:17Two private compartments, two mosquitos, please.
00:07:20Two, you say?
00:07:21Will that be all?
00:07:22And three crates of animals.
00:07:25Impossible.
00:07:26I know I'm asking you to perform miracles.
00:07:29Perhaps this will help.
00:07:59It's called squeeze in China.
00:08:01The Americans know how.
00:08:03And in Britain, we call it bribery and corruption.
00:08:07Now, sir.
00:08:08Excuse me.
00:08:19You!
00:08:20Get out!
00:08:23Sir Alexander Saxton.
00:08:26Yes?
00:08:28Captain O'Hagan, sir.
00:08:29General Wang told me to find you.
00:08:31And to make myself useful.
00:08:35Now I remember.
00:08:36I do have Your Excellency's ticket.
00:08:41Your ticket, right here.
00:08:56And the Lord have mercy on his soul.
00:08:59Not that he deserves it.
00:09:01The dirty thief.
00:09:03You have his things?
00:09:05You knew him?
00:09:07Krasinski, the locksmith.
00:09:10He could open any trunk with a hairpin.
00:09:18A thief?
00:09:20But he was blind.
00:09:22Blind?
00:09:23He could spot a policeman a mile away.
00:09:30I'll be damned.
00:09:36The work of the devil.
00:09:49Can I be of any assistance?
00:09:51Can I be of any assistance, Father?
00:09:56This is yours.
00:09:57It is, but I demand an explanation.
00:10:01Whatever you have here is unholy.
00:10:04And must be destroyed.
00:10:16Inspector Mirov.
00:10:18What is in there, Excellency?
00:10:19Fossils.
00:10:21What is a fossil?
00:10:23A stone.
00:10:26Stones?
00:10:28There wouldn't be something valuable in there, like gold.
00:10:31Gold?
00:10:32It's a laboratory specimen.
00:10:35No value to a thief.
00:10:37Where there is God,
00:10:40there is always a place for the cross.
00:10:43Even on this stone floor just so.
00:10:50But Satan is evil.
00:10:53And where evil is,
00:10:55there is no place for the cross.
00:11:13Rubbish.
00:11:14A conjurer's trick.
00:11:16Captain.
00:11:17Yes, sir.
00:11:18You get your men to put the crates on the train.
00:11:27Ready?
00:11:32Lift it up.
00:11:34Off you go.
00:11:49Hello, everybody.
00:11:56Where are the crates, Steve?
00:11:57They're just out there, sir.
00:11:59Out here.
00:12:01You ought to be careful with this one.
00:12:18Follow me.
00:12:48Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:13:18Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:13:48aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:14:18aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:14:48aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:15:18aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
00:15:48May I escort you back to your carriage madame ?
00:16:18Yours?
00:16:22Oh, thank you.
00:16:26Excuse me.
00:16:28Yes?
00:16:30I was on the platform before, when that mad monk was carrying on.
00:16:34Yes?
00:16:36I'm an engineer, a scientist.
00:16:42And this is ordinary chalk.
00:16:46How do you explain it's not writing on that crate?
00:16:49Hypnosis. Yoga.
00:16:52These mystics can be very convincing.
00:16:54They can even hypnotize themselves.
00:17:08The fresh food we will pick up.
00:17:10Who will pay for it, sir?
00:17:12Oh, just give it a count of how much you spend.
00:17:16If someone were to drill a little hole in this crate during the night,
00:17:22and take a look at what's inside,
00:17:26I'd be very grateful.
00:17:46It's in order.
00:17:52Help me.
00:17:56In what way, madam?
00:18:03Is this number eight?
00:18:04That's next door, Wells' confinement.
00:18:08There, there, don't cry.
00:18:12Everything will be all right.
00:18:17Excuse me.
00:18:20I'm sorry, dear fellow, I'm afraid you're in the wrong pew.
00:18:23Here, number eight, do you see?
00:18:27Eight A, lower birth.
00:18:30Eight B, upper birth.
00:18:33Don't worry, look here.
00:18:35I was supposed to have this compartment to myself.
00:18:37If you don't mind.
00:18:38I'm sorry if I'm in your way.
00:18:40Excuse me.
00:18:41I have no ticket and I have to get out of Shanghai.
00:18:44I'm sure I can make it worth your while.
00:18:46The young lady's in trouble.
00:18:48Well, what do you suggest we do about it?
00:18:50Couldn't you, couldn't you double up with somebody else?
00:18:53Miss Jones, steady.
00:18:55I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:19:08I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:19:38I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:19:58I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:20:18I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:20:38I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:20:58I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:21:18I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:21:38I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:21:58I'm sure we can all get along very well together.
00:22:20There's the stink of hell on this train.
00:22:23Even the dog knows it.
00:22:30When the Englishman comes to call, what should I wear?
00:22:34Sure of yourself, aren't you?
00:22:37The blue one with the decollete.
00:22:40Or perhaps the red one.
00:22:45Love jesting with her immortal soul.
00:22:49That's why we keep you, Pujardov.
00:22:52Your immortal souls are your concern.
00:23:00She's afraid of something.
00:23:03Tell me, Pujardov.
00:23:05Yes?
00:23:07Which do you think I should wear for the Englishman?
00:23:10The red?
00:23:11Or the blue?
00:23:12Enough.
00:23:15I forbid you to talk this way.
00:23:17You forbid?
00:23:20Forgive me, Your Excellency.
00:23:24My concern for the spiritual welfare of the Countess, I forgot myself.
00:23:30I will pray for humility.
00:23:35Pray hard, Pujardov.
00:23:37Or you'll find yourself praying for a job, too.
00:23:40Hail Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
00:23:59Oh, it's the piece I was playing.
00:24:02I wonder who it is.
00:24:32You wish to see us?
00:24:48I thought one of you might know what happened to the baggage man.
00:24:52I haven't the remotest idea.
00:24:54What about you?
00:24:57Perhaps it had something to do with what's inside that crate.
00:25:00I agree with you.
00:25:01He was trying to open it when something happened.
00:25:04What?
00:25:11Fortunately, he was interrupted.
00:25:13Yes.
00:25:14By whom?
00:25:17Why are you so worried about it being opened?
00:25:20It may be my fault.
00:25:21I asked the baggage man to take a look.
00:25:23I was curious.
00:25:25It was no concern of yours.
00:25:28All of yours.
00:25:35One man dead, another missing.
00:25:37It's time we opened this box.
00:25:39You will do no such thing.
00:25:42Give me the key.
00:26:01Konev!
00:26:02See if you can open the crate with that.
00:26:06Go ahead.
00:26:36Oh, my God.
00:26:51It's the baggage man.
00:26:53What was in there?
00:26:55I told you, a fossil, part ape, part man.
00:26:57It lived two million years ago.
00:26:59Are you telling me that an ape that lived two million years ago got out of that crate?
00:27:04Killed the baggage man and put him in there.
00:27:06Then locked everything up neat and tidy and got away.
00:27:09Yes, I am.
00:27:10It's alive.
00:27:11It must be.
00:27:12Lock him up.
00:27:13We'll search the train and find it, whatever it is, and destroy it.
00:27:17But if it's alive...
00:27:18I want this kept quiet.
00:27:20I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:27:50I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:28:20I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:28:49I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:29:18I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:29:47I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:30:16I don't want to panic the passengers.
00:30:39My glass is empty.
00:30:42Oh, forgive me.
00:30:44My mind was elsewhere.
00:30:47What is it?
00:30:49I'm sorry.
00:30:50I can't tell you.
00:30:57Good evening.
00:30:59Good evening.
00:31:00Good evening.
00:31:04Haven't we met?
00:31:07I don't believe so.
00:31:09Yes, at the Governor's Palace, General Wang.
00:31:13Your mistake.
00:31:18Of course I beg your pardon.
00:31:20It was somebody else.
00:31:35What's the matter?
00:31:37The eye of that fish.
00:31:40It's white.
00:31:43Naturally, it's boiled.
00:31:46Boiled?
00:31:48Yes.
00:31:55Is it true you're a doctor?
00:31:58Ask me when I finish my dinner.
00:32:00It's urgent.
00:32:02What are the symptoms?
00:32:03He's dead.
00:32:04You saw him.
00:32:05Oh, that one.
00:32:07There's nothing I can do for him.
00:32:09Now there's one more dead.
00:32:11One of my soldiers.
00:32:12The same white eyes.
00:32:13I want to know the cause of death.
00:32:15Who's dead?
00:32:16Keep your nose out of it.
00:32:17You didn't hear anything.
00:32:20Excuse me.
00:32:24Is Professor Saxon's fossil still at large?
00:32:27I think the fossil or whatever it is escaped.
00:32:30Jumped off the train.
00:32:35Miss Jones, I shall need your assistance.
00:32:39Yes, but at your age, I'm not surprised.
00:32:44With an autopsy.
00:32:46Oh, well, that's different.
00:33:01Very curious.
00:33:06A genetic defect, obviously.
00:33:11Scalpel.
00:33:16Can you keep that still?
00:33:23What is she doing?
00:33:24Tray pan.
00:33:39Don't get up, please.
00:33:48I see you have decided to dine alone, Sir Alexander.
00:33:53Certainly, in worse circumstances and in worse company.
00:34:02That's all.
00:34:04Here you are, Doctor.
00:34:15You're in bad humor because you've lost your box of bones.
00:34:22That box of bones, madame, could have solved many of the riddles of science.
00:34:28If the theory of evolution is confirmed.
00:34:31If the science of biology is revolutionized.
00:34:34If the very origin of man is determined.
00:34:36I have heard of evolution.
00:34:38It's... it's immoral.
00:34:40It's a fact.
00:34:42And there's no morality in a fact.
00:34:52And what about the baggage man?
00:34:54And that poor thief at the station?
00:34:57What about them?
00:34:59They're dead.
00:35:03Was your creature responsible for that?
00:35:06Probably.
00:35:09And you don't care?
00:35:13A baggage man and a thief?
00:35:21You're right, madame.
00:35:23I don't care as much as I should.
00:35:31Can you tell me how he died?
00:35:36Smooth as a baby's bottom.
00:35:38You saw this man today and he was normal?
00:35:40Absolutely.
00:35:42It must be a mutation, a freak of nature.
00:35:44What's so special about this brain?
00:35:47Learning and memory are engraved on the normal brain.
00:35:52Leaving a wrinkled surface.
00:35:57This brain has been drained.
00:35:59The memory has been removed.
00:36:01Like chalk erased from a blackboard.
00:36:31Come in.
00:37:01It's all yours.
00:37:05I won't be long.
00:39:00Oh, my God!
00:39:28Miss?
00:39:46It's Dr. Wells.
00:39:51Miss, are you all right?
00:40:18Miss, are you there?
00:40:32Miss, are you there?
00:41:01Miss, are you there?
00:41:30Miss, are you there?
00:41:59Miss, are you there?
00:42:28Come in.
00:42:34Feeling better?
00:42:37Yes.
00:42:39Anything wrong?
00:42:41That woman who was killed.
00:42:43The engineer, you know, the chess player.
00:42:46He told me that she was an international spy.
00:42:50Yes, I know.
00:42:52Oh, you do?
00:42:53Well, could that fact have had anything to do with her death?
00:42:57What do you think?
00:43:00Dr. Wells and I performed an autopsy on her.
00:43:03Her brain was completely smooth.
00:43:05Just like the baggage man's.
00:43:06Everything had been erased.
00:43:08Now, I have a theory about this.
00:43:09I'm only a policeman, Professor.
00:43:11I don't have much education.
00:43:15Well, I'll make it simple.
00:43:18Supposing that creature, the one you killed...
00:43:22...was capable of taking ideas directly from other people's brains...
00:43:25...and transferring them to its own.
00:43:27You mean it sucked other people's brains?
00:43:30Absorbed through the eyes.
00:43:36That was our first clue.
00:43:38The eyes going white.
00:43:41Then, if the beast had absorbed your brains...
00:43:44...all of your education would have gone into its brain.
00:43:48It would have been as clever as you.
00:43:51Much more so, because what it had taken from me...
00:43:54...would have been added to the learning that it already had.
00:43:58Professor, spy, baggage man and thief.
00:44:03What was the creature looking for?
00:44:06Well, that we'll never know, now that it's dead.
00:44:09And yet...
00:44:10What?
00:44:13A creature like that...
00:44:17How would it ever die?
00:44:20Inspector?
00:44:21What is it?
00:44:22I found this.
00:44:23The animal had it.
00:44:25The animal had it?
00:44:26Give it to me.
00:44:29It belonged to Count Petrovski.
00:44:31How do you know?
00:44:33I saw him put it in the safe.
00:44:46Steel, harder than a diamond.
00:44:49That's why the spies are after it.
00:44:51French, German, English.
00:44:54But they're wasting their time.
00:44:57What really matters is the formula.
00:45:00And that gentleman is safe.
00:45:03Up here.
00:45:09What happened to the girl?
00:45:10The spy?
00:45:12She's dead.
00:45:13The fossil or whatever it was killed her.
00:45:16But there's no more danger, Countess.
00:45:18Beast is not dead.
00:45:19I put four bullets into him.
00:45:24You think evil can be killed with bullets?
00:45:29Satan lives.
00:45:32The unholy one is among us.
00:45:36Oh, Shabbat, Shabbat, Shabbat, Shabbat.
00:46:07Specimen job.
00:46:13What do you expect to find in the eye fluid?
00:46:16I don't know.
00:46:26This is incredible.
00:46:51What?
00:46:58It's the last thing the creature saw.
00:47:03Police inspector.
00:47:04The image has been retained in the fluid.
00:47:07Exactly.
00:47:08The creature's visual memory is located not in its brain,
00:47:12but in the eye itself.
00:47:42Can you identify anything?
00:47:58It's a brontosaurus.
00:48:01A pterodactyl.
00:48:32Incredible.
00:48:38This is not a map.
00:48:42It can only be the Earth seen from space.
00:48:46I hope I'm not intruding.
00:48:48People on the train are becoming afraid, Professor.
00:48:51People on long journeys become bored, Madame.
00:48:55They crave excitement.
00:48:58Then there's no more danger.
00:49:00It's all finished.
00:49:03And what about your science?
00:49:05The evolution you were talking about?
00:49:09Look for yourself.
00:49:24Come here, Pujaro.
00:49:28There's something I want to show you.
00:49:35Look.
00:49:46Oceanoide.
00:49:54It is the Holy Writ.
00:49:58On the second day, he created the Earth.
00:50:07Where did you get it?
00:50:09There, from the creature's eye.
00:50:17The eye of Satan.
00:50:19Nonsense.
00:50:20There's a scientific explanation.
00:50:23You know it?
00:50:26No.
00:50:29Not yet.
00:50:34Before the fall, before Satan was banished from the throne of God,
00:50:40the evil one looked down from heaven and did see...
00:50:45Rubbish!
00:50:57Pujaro!
00:51:10Pujaro!
00:51:12Where is he?
00:51:13I don't know.
00:51:15He's gone mad.
00:51:22I'll look in the baggage car.
00:51:23Right.
00:51:52Pujaro!
00:52:21Pujaro!
00:52:29Looking for the thief, Miss Jones?
00:52:32You know about it.
00:52:35What's all the fuss?
00:52:41You get back that eye and there's a thousand rubles in it for you.
00:52:46A thousand rubles for an eye?
00:52:50There's something in it.
00:52:54Pictures.
00:52:56Pictures of what?
00:52:58Pictures of the Earth in prehistoric times.
00:53:02Pictures of the Earth seen from space.
00:53:05Who else has seen such pictures?
00:53:09Dr. Wells, Professor Saxon, and that pretty countess.
00:53:14I see.
00:53:39Pujaro!
00:54:10Have pity.
00:54:12Have pity.
00:54:13Are you going to kill me?
00:54:22Fool, there's nothing in your head of any use.
00:54:35Another killing.
00:54:45Stop the train!
00:54:46No, right.
00:54:47I want to get off.
00:54:48There's no law.
00:54:49Quiet.
00:54:50There's been talk about getting off the train.
00:54:52Well, you can forget it.
00:54:54I'll get off.
00:54:55I'll get off.
00:54:56I'll get off.
00:54:57I'll get off.
00:54:58I'll get off.
00:54:59I'll get off.
00:55:00I'll get off.
00:55:01I'll get off.
00:55:02I'll get off.
00:55:03You can forget it.
00:55:04I'll complain to the authorities.
00:55:05I'm not one of your musics.
00:55:07If necessary, I'll shoot anyone who tries to stop the train.
00:55:10Shoot!
00:55:11Shoot, you stupid rat!
00:55:29Who else has seen such pictures?
00:55:32Dr. Wells, Professor Saxton, and that pretty Countess.
00:55:38Wells, Saxton, Countess.
00:55:42Wells, Saxton, Countess.
00:55:44Wells, Saxton, Countess.
00:55:53Wells, is this creature dead or not?
00:55:58If it is, who killed Miss Jones?
00:56:05Do you have any idea?
00:56:08No, Inspector, I haven't, but I've asked the conductor to wire ahead to stop the train at the next station.
00:56:26What's the idea?
00:56:28I don't know.
00:56:54Tell me who you are.
00:56:59Tell me. I will serve you.
00:57:16I want to help you.
00:57:19It's like some contagious disease.
00:57:22Well, if there's a disease, there must be symptoms.
00:57:25Fever? You could take everyone's temperature.
00:57:29The eyes. Why do their eyes go white?
00:57:55Do you think it's true what they say about those horrible white eyes?
00:57:59Oh, that part is true enough.
00:58:04Ah, Inspector, it's only you now.
00:58:08What about me?
00:58:09Your eyes.
00:58:11We must examine your eyes, too.
00:58:14Certainly.
00:58:15Certainly.
00:58:24Perhaps you should test for radiation or other invisible rays.
00:58:28X-rays?
00:58:30Well, it's a thought, but on this train, how would we go about it?
00:58:34Are you a scientist?
00:58:36An engineer, but I try to keep up with things.
00:58:39That's to be admired.
00:58:41Inspector, I suggest you tell all these people to stay together, in groups or in pairs,
00:58:47so that if anything does happen to anybody, then somebody can raise the alarm.
00:58:51On no account must anybody be left alone.
00:59:41News of the train.
01:00:12The train will be here in...
01:00:15exactly...
01:00:1814 minutes.
01:00:2114 minutes?
01:00:23Yes, Your Honor.
01:00:25That's what it says here.
01:00:32It doesn't say it in words, Your Honor, but in code.
01:00:36It's like another language.
01:00:37I know about telegraphs, Little Papa.
01:00:41I know about trains.
01:00:43I know about electrical currents.
01:00:46On your feet, everybody.
01:00:49Outside, full pack.
01:00:53Even though I still believe in God, I don't like to be made a fool of.
01:00:56No, Your Honor.
01:01:00I wouldn't do that.
01:01:01I wouldn't do that.
01:01:06Tell me, Little Father.
01:01:09Do you believe in the devil?
01:01:13Yes, Your Honor.
01:01:17Oh, good. Send a telegram.
01:01:21Tell him that Captain Kazan, he knows that a horse has four legs.
01:01:27He knows that a murderer has two arms.
01:01:29But still, the devil must be afraid of one honest Cossack.
01:02:00Earth gravity.
01:02:02You know how to measure it?
01:02:04How to measure gravity?
01:02:06What I would like to know is, can gravity be overcome?
01:02:12If you mean, can man get beyond the gravitational field of the Earth into space?
01:02:17Not yet, but any day now.
01:02:20Someday?
01:02:22There is a mathematics professor, his name is Tsiolkovsky.
01:02:25He has ideas about rockets.
01:02:26Machines that can fly free of the Earth's gravity.
01:02:30You know him?
01:02:36Tsiolkovsky was one of my teachers.
01:02:39He was like a father to me.
01:02:41But why would a man like you be interested...
01:02:56in a man like me?
01:03:18What do you think is behind all this, Your Honor?
01:03:23Look at this.
01:03:24That's what we saw under the microscope.
01:03:26It shows the Earth as it might look from space.
01:03:29What does it mean?
01:03:31It means that millions of years ago, something, some form of intelligence...
01:03:36came to the Earth from another planet.
01:03:39The atmosphere of the Earth was new to it, different.
01:03:42But it learned how to survive.
01:03:44How?
01:03:46By entering into the body and brain of an Earth creature.
01:03:51The fossil that I found and brought with me.
01:03:54And this thing from another planet survived with the fossil?
01:03:57Then came to life again?
01:03:59Exactly.
01:04:00Go on, Professor.
01:04:03The animal that you shot was only the host.
01:04:07And when that animal died, the alien intelligence...
01:04:12transferred, somehow, to another host.
01:04:18It's alive.
01:04:20In someone on this train.
01:04:23You're a very good detective.
01:04:25You've discovered everything except who is now the host.
01:04:29That's our next step.
01:04:31I thought this might come in handy.
01:04:33Good idea.
01:04:34Two of you together, that's fine.
01:04:36But what if one of you is the monster?
01:04:39Monster?
01:04:41We're British, you know.
01:04:53But you must have seen something.
01:04:55I told you, I was asleep.
01:04:59He knew about the white eyes, he told me.
01:05:03When you fell asleep, the lights were on.
01:05:06And when you woke up?
01:05:07They were off.
01:05:09Are you sure?
01:05:10Positive.
01:05:11It was dark.
01:05:12I put the lights on.
01:05:14And that's when I found him beside me.
01:05:18When we did the test, the lights were on.
01:05:22Monster.
01:05:53Inspector.
01:05:58This steel at high temperatures.
01:06:01What happens to it?
01:06:06It gets stronger.
01:06:08What temperatures, for example?
01:06:1010 or 12,000 degrees.
01:06:13Where on earth would you get such temperatures?
01:06:16Nowhere on earth.
01:06:17Where on earth would you get such temperatures?
01:06:20Nowhere on earth.
01:06:48The Tsar will hear of this.
01:06:50I'll have you sent to Siberia.
01:06:54I am in Siberia.
01:06:56This is Countess Irina Petrovska.
01:06:59And I'm Count Marion Petrovsky.
01:07:02Oh, Your Excellencies, I'm sorry.
01:07:05I'm sorry.
01:07:07I'm sorry.
01:07:09I'm sorry.
01:07:11I'm sorry.
01:07:13I'm sorry.
01:07:15I'm sorry.
01:07:18Of course, the Count and Countess are exempt from our orders.
01:07:22Please, escort them to their car.
01:07:35Peasants.
01:07:37Peasants!
01:07:48Are you a Countess?
01:07:50I'm an American, and I'm not accustomed to being bullied by foreigners.
01:07:54That man, he's the one who wouldn't let us get off the train.
01:07:57He's responsible.
01:08:05Your Excellency, I'm a police inspector.
01:08:08Everybody's under arrest.
01:08:14Including you.
01:08:18Who are the killers?
01:08:20Who are the troublemakers?
01:08:29Who are the foreign influencers?
01:08:37Don't worry.
01:08:39I'll smoke them out.
01:08:41What is he raving about?
01:08:48You English believe in free speech, don't you?
01:08:51Certainly.
01:08:53If instead of babbling nonsense, you'd investigate this properly.
01:08:56This is outrageous.
01:09:00So.
01:09:03You're a police inspector, huh?
01:09:06Yes, Captain.
01:09:08Mirov is my name.
01:09:10Mirov.
01:09:12Mirov.
01:09:14Mirov.
01:09:15Oh, Mirov.
01:09:18That's a good Russian name, Mirov.
01:09:22Tell me, Mirov.
01:09:25What do you know about all the filth that's going on here, huh?
01:09:28Filth?
01:09:29Oh, come on, Inspector. Certainly you know what I'm doing here, don't you?
01:09:33You just point out the suspects, and I promise you I'll get the truth out of them.
01:09:38You're mistaken, sir.
01:09:41Mistaken?
01:09:42Fool!
01:09:45Fool!
01:09:52Get back!
01:09:54Get back!
01:09:55Back!
01:09:57Or I will put a curse on your heads.
01:10:04He has the evil eye.
01:10:06Huh?
01:10:14Beware the wrath of Satan.
01:10:17Come on.
01:10:34Cool, huh?
01:10:39On your knees, Monk.
01:10:47We must try to stop this.
01:11:18He was trying to protect you.
01:11:21Why?
01:11:22He's mad.
01:11:27Who are you?
01:11:29I told you, a policeman.
01:11:47No!
01:11:57No!
01:11:58No!
01:12:13No!
01:12:16You saw his eyes. One look at them and you're dead.
01:12:29Come into me, Satan.
01:12:34Thine is the kingdom under the power of the glory.
01:12:39Thy will be done on earth as it is in hell.
01:12:47Now, anything.
01:12:49Anything that moves near that door, kill him.
01:12:53But what if the monk is innocent?
01:12:55But what if the monk is innocent?
01:12:57Yeah, we got lots of innocent monks.
01:13:00All right, let's move these peasants out of here.
01:13:02Quickly!
01:13:25No!
01:13:55No!
01:14:25Everybody back to the baggage car. Hurry!
01:14:55No!
01:15:25No!
01:15:27No!
01:15:30No!
01:15:41No!
01:15:42No!
01:15:44No!
01:15:50No!
01:15:56No!
01:16:07There.
01:16:13He always kills in the dark. He can't play his little tricks in a strong light.
01:16:26No!
01:16:28No!
01:16:55No!
01:17:26You take care of the others.
01:17:27What about you?
01:17:28I'll do all right. Go on.
01:17:30You take this.
01:17:31Right.
01:17:56You know, in spite of everything, Pujatov had a certain affection for you.
01:18:04Yet, you humiliated him often.
01:18:08Even in front of the countess.
01:18:25No!
01:18:27No!
01:18:56He's dead.
01:19:00You killed him.
01:19:02Did you want to kill Pujatov? It's too late.
01:19:07I see you hanged.
01:19:09The poor monk.
01:19:11He loved you more than he loved the poor monk.
01:19:15You killed him.
01:19:16You killed him.
01:19:17You killed him.
01:19:18You killed him.
01:19:19You killed him.
01:19:20You killed him.
01:19:21You killed him.
01:19:22He loved you more than he loved the promise of heaven.
01:19:32Over there.
01:19:33Quickly, over there.
01:19:34Irina, behind me.
01:19:44It would be a mistake to kill me.
01:19:47Who are you?
01:19:49In words, it's difficult.
01:19:51I'm a form of energy occupying the shell.
01:19:56Where do you come from?
01:19:59Another galaxy.
01:20:03I came with others like myself.
01:20:06I was left behind, an accident.
01:20:10I survived in protozoans, fish, vertebrates.
01:20:15The history of your planet is part of me.
01:20:21Pull the trigger and you will end it.
01:20:29What am I to do with you?
01:20:32Let me go.
01:20:34That's not possible.
01:20:35It is possible.
01:20:39I will teach you to end disease, pain, hunger.
01:20:47Wait.
01:20:50There is something more.
01:21:20Let me go.
01:21:41Let me go.
01:21:50Let me go.
01:22:17Let me go.
01:22:20Let me go.
01:22:50Let me go.
01:23:20Let me go.
01:23:51Sexton, thank God.
01:23:56Stand back, please.
01:23:57Make room.
01:24:21The ship has been sailed.
01:24:32Moscow says to stop the express when it goes through the switching point.
01:24:40Nail.
01:24:42That means killing everybody on board.
01:24:46That's what it says.
01:24:48Maybe there's a war.
01:24:50Maybe it's war.
01:26:20I don't know.
01:26:50I don't know.
