The Blood Beast Terror (U.S. title: The Vampire-Beast Craves Blood; also known as Blood Beast From Hell and Deathshead Vampire[1]) is a 1968 British horror film directed by Vernon Sewell and starring Peter Cushing, Robert Flemyng and Wanda Ventham. It was written by Peter Bryan. It was released in the UK by Tigon in February 1968,[2][3] and in the United States by Pacemaker Pictures on a double-bill with Slaughter of the Vampires (1962).
Plot
In 19th century Britain, a series of grisly murders is taking place in the countryside near London. The victims are good-looking young men, between the ages of twenty and thirty and all have had their throats torn open and blood drained. The witness of the latest murder, coachman Joe Trigger, is driven insane when he catches a glimpse of the mysterious killer.
Investigating the deaths are Detective Inspector Quennell of Scotland Yard and his assistant, Sergeant Allan. Because Joe keeps ranting about a horrible winged creature with huge eyes, Quennell hatches a theory that perhaps an eagle is on the loose. At the scene of the latest killing, several large scales are discovered.
The two latest victims were students of the renowned entomology professor Dr Carl Mallinger, who lives nearby with his beautiful daughter Clare and their scar-faced butler, Granger. When Quennell brings the scales to Mallinger for identification, Mallinger behaves suspiciously and tries to take all of them. Quennell describes his theory about a killer eagle, but Mallinger dismisses it outright. Quennell is unaware that the entomologist has a pet eagle, which the sadistic Granger torments.

00:04:53Uh, next slide, please.
00:04:57The, uh, potter wasp. Looking at the black face of the potter wasp, we find that in both sexes there
00:05:04is a golden spot between the antennae.
00:05:06In the female sex, there is also a golden spot at the base of the clippius, and the male is
00:05:12distinguished by having the whole of the clippius and the front of the antennae yellow.
00:05:16In the male sex also, the final joint is turned up in a hooked point.
00:05:22The name potter is justified by the fact that the female sex constructs her nest in the shape of a
00:05:27low, broad flask, such as a potter might turn on his wheel.
00:05:31The, uh, neck being short and the mouth being expanded, but of course with no opening.
00:05:36Now we come to the moths about which I was talking last week. Uh, next slide, please.
00:05:43This specimen represents more or less the ordinary form of moth.
00:05:48The pale pinkish grey is sometimes tinged with green in the paler forms.
00:05:52Variation is chiefly connected with modifications which sometimes occur in the upper and lower portions.
00:06:05The specimen emerges during the months of May and June and is usually to be found on the branches of
00:06:11lime trees or anywhere near where they are growing.
00:06:14Caterpillars come up to sun themselves at about four in the afternoon.
00:06:18Good evening, Inspector.
00:06:19Good evening, Granger.
00:06:20May I come in?
00:06:23I wonder if it's possible to see Professor Mellinger.
00:06:26I'm afraid that won't be convenient, Inspector.
00:06:29The Professor is giving his usual Thursday evening lecture to the university students.
00:06:33Oh, I'm sure he wouldn't mind my slipping in at the back.
00:06:35Then I can catch him as soon as he's finished.
00:06:38As you wish.
00:06:40I'll take your hat.
00:06:42Uh, next slide.
00:06:44The privet hawk moth.
00:06:46As its name implies, this moth is to be found in or around privet.
00:06:50In July and August, it can often be seen resting on the long sprays of the food plant.
00:06:56Other food plants are lilac ash and lovel.
00:06:59They are very much subject to attack by ichtumens.
00:07:02The southern portions of England seem to be the principal home of this moth.
00:07:06However, it is widely distributed in central and southern Europe,
00:07:09and is also to be found in China and Japan.
00:07:13Well, that brings me to the end of my lecture.
00:07:21I thank you for your attention.
00:07:23If there are any questions any of you would like to ask, I will try to answer them.
00:07:27Would some of you be so kind as to raise the gas?
00:07:38Inspector.
00:07:42Professor.
00:07:43I didn't expect to see you here.
00:07:48Freshman's general.
00:07:49Good evening, Miss Clare.
00:07:50Good evening, Miss Clare.
00:07:52I can't have to bring this.
00:07:54I'll say.
00:07:55I hope you didn't mind my coming in.
00:07:57Of course not.
00:07:57Are you interested in entomology?
00:08:00I easily could be.
00:08:01It's a fascinating subject.
00:08:02I hope you enjoyed it, isn't it?
00:08:24The real reason I came is because there are one of two things I wanted to ask you about young
00:08:29Fisher.
00:08:30Oh, Fisher, yes.
00:08:32Terrible waste.
00:08:33Brilliant boy.
00:08:33One of my best students.
00:08:34Yes.
00:08:35What was the coroner's verdict?
00:08:38Murder by person or persons unknown.
00:08:47You bloody fool.
00:08:49I never dreamt she'd pass out like this.
00:08:54Who's responsible for this?
00:08:56I didn't think she'd faint, sir.
00:08:57It was only a joke.
00:08:59Get out of this house!
00:09:05Get some water.
00:09:06Of course, sir.
00:09:08Excuse me, sir.
00:09:09Your sergeant's outside.
00:09:11He wants to see you.
00:09:12What?
00:09:12He says it's urgent, sir.
00:09:15All right.
00:09:21What is it, Sergeant?
00:09:22Another one, sir.
00:09:24Wash your clothes.
00:09:25There's blood everywhere.
00:09:30Get the professor.
00:09:31Right.
00:09:39What is this?
00:09:39What's going on?
00:09:40A young man found on the heath.
00:09:41I think he's still alive.
00:09:44Quickly, someone.
00:09:44Tell Granger to fetch my bag.
00:09:46I love it.
00:09:48Inspector, would you please stand clear?
00:10:04too late, I'm afraid.
00:10:05He's dead.

00:13:57No.
00:13:58We want to see the body of the water in there about an hour ago.
00:14:00Oh, yes, that one.
00:14:02Very interesting, that one.
00:14:03I'll put him over there by the window.
00:14:05Always put the interesting ones by the window.
00:14:07Well, this is a nice surprise, Jeff.
00:14:09Someone to have a chat to.
00:14:11You don't get a lot of sense out of these, you know.
00:14:14Oh, dear, well, what's the state of this place here?
00:14:17You know, you've caught me right in the middle of me dinner.
00:14:20I've got pie tonight.
00:14:21Well, it makes a change from cold meat, eh?
00:14:24Would you like a bit?
00:14:26No, thank you.
00:14:27Oh, at least I can offer you some ale.
00:14:29Kicks beautifully cool under these slabs.
00:14:32It's virtually drained of blood.
00:14:34No normal wound would do that.
00:14:37It is a bit strange, isn't it?
00:14:38Looks like somebody's clawed him, eh, Doctor?
00:14:41There's been six of them so far,
00:14:43and they've all been in here.
00:14:46All very similar, too.
00:14:48Severe injury to the cranium region,
00:14:51thorax severely damaged,
00:14:52and ribcage subject to extreme pressures.
00:14:55Mind you, they ain't messy.
00:14:57No blood about.
00:14:59I think you might like to have a look
00:15:01at number six over there, sir.
00:15:02Now, that really is a messy one.
00:15:05He got knocked down by Ensign Cav in Piccadilly.
00:15:08Very bloody.
00:15:09Very bloody.
00:15:10They were all like this.
00:15:11Yes, they all followed the same pattern.
00:15:13No motive, as far as I can tell.
00:15:15Certainly not theft.
00:15:17And all the victims were men.
00:15:20What could have caused those injuries, Doctor?
00:15:22They could have been inflicted
00:15:24by some sort of animal.
00:15:26Our tomcat's been missing for a week.
00:15:30You've been most helpful.
00:15:31Good night.
00:15:32Good night, sir.
00:15:34Good night, sir.
00:15:36Here.
00:15:37I was only joking about the tomcat, you know.
00:15:39I don't think he'd hurt the flight.
00:15:41He's a gentle little thing.
00:15:42She sits there and purrs.
00:15:53All tucked up nice and comfy.
00:15:56He, he, he, he.
00:16:21Here's some more of these things, Sergeant.
00:16:22Oh, thank you.
00:16:26Morning, Sergeant.
00:16:27Good morning, sir.
00:16:28Had any luck?
00:16:29No sign of any weapons so far, sir.
00:16:32That's obviously where it happened, sir.
00:16:33Over there.
00:16:39Lovers' walk, they call it, sir.
00:16:41Not that there was much love here last night.
00:16:43Look there, sir.
00:16:48There was something else, sir.
00:16:49Not that I can make a head nor a tail of them.
00:16:52We found these all over the place.
00:16:58Any idea what they are?
00:16:59No idea at all, sir.
00:17:01Seems they're everywhere.
00:17:02Some of them hang off the bushes.
00:17:03I'd better take those.
00:17:05Pop them in there, will you?
00:17:07Right, Sergeant.
00:17:09I'm going along to Clare House to see Professor Malinger.
00:17:12Carry on with the search, will you?
00:17:14Very good, sir.
00:17:38Who is it?
00:17:39It's me, sir.
00:17:40Well, what do you want?
00:17:41I told you I wasn't going to be disturbed.
00:17:43The inspector's here, sir.
00:17:44Well, time to go away.
00:17:45I'm sorry if I've called at an inconvenient time.
00:17:48It's very good of you to see me.
00:17:49Not at all.
00:17:50What can I do for you?
00:17:52I wondered if you could help me.
00:17:53Well, I can certainly try.
00:17:55Would it be possible for a bird such as an eagle to be at large in this area?
00:17:59Well, why do you ask that?
00:18:02Well, the coachman who found the murdered man has gone completely out of his mind.
00:18:06He's in a mental home now.
00:18:07He keeps raving about a huge bird he swears he saw hovering over the body.
00:18:12There are certainly no eagles round here.
00:18:14The eagle is a bird entirely indigenous to mountainous country.
00:18:18I suppose one might have escaped from the zoo, but in that case, surely you would have been informed.
00:18:25But would an eagle attack a human being?
00:18:27Well, it had been known to attack mountaineers who they thought were endangering their young.
00:18:32They've even been known to attack and carry off a young child.
00:18:35But for an eagle to attack and inflict such wounds upon a fully grown man would, I should say, be
00:18:43quite impossible.
00:18:44I'm sure the species is very, but approximately how large are the claws of an eagle?
00:18:51Come with me, Inspector.
00:19:04Come with me, Inspector.
00:19:12There you are, Inspector.
00:19:14Aquila Cresatus.
00:19:15The golden eagle.
00:19:16A magnificent specimen.
00:19:18Her talent and that beak could do quite a lot of damage.
00:19:21To a man lying unconscious, perhaps.
00:19:24But to a young man defending himself, I don't think so.
00:19:28Tell me, Inspector, why do you pay so much attention to the ravings of a maniac?
00:19:33It's all I have to work on.
00:19:35I see.
00:19:40Except these.
00:19:50Where did you get those?
00:19:51They were found at the scene of the murder.
00:19:53Quite a lot of them.
00:19:54On the ground and hanging off the bushes.
00:19:57Do you know what they could be?
00:20:01Offhand, I really can't tell you.
00:20:03Perhaps if I might be allowed to examine them more closely in my laboratory.
00:20:08Then by all means.
00:20:10And if you should find out what they are, perhaps you'll send word to me.
00:20:14Of course.
00:20:16Good day, Professor.
00:20:36I teach you.
00:20:37You want your food, do you?
00:20:39Come on.
00:20:40Come on, then.
00:20:43I teach you.
00:20:46Ranger!
00:20:48How many times have I told you not to bait that creature?
00:20:50I was only feeding it.
00:20:51It went for me.
00:20:52Get out of here.
00:20:56Steady, boy.
00:20:57Steady, boy.
00:20:57Steady, steady, steady.
00:21:10You're watching a little bit.
00:21:14I'm walking around.
00:21:17Let me see your face.
00:21:18mom jumps out.
00:21:30Oh, my God.
00:22:00You got all that, Culpeper?
00:22:02Yes, sir.
00:22:03So it's agreed, is it?
00:22:04We put out a statement that we consider these attacks to be by some wild creature.
00:22:09A bird of prey, perhaps.
00:22:10The commissioner is particularly anxious to avoid another maniac scam.
00:22:14Well, it would certainly give the newspaper something to talk about.
00:22:17Set them off on another tack.
00:22:19Jackson, I want you to put a section of your division onto making a show of searching the heath
00:22:23in the hope that we may put the real murderer off his guard, making him careless.
00:22:27Very good, sir.
00:22:28Anything else?
00:22:29I don't think so, sir.
00:22:31Right.
00:22:43Good evening.
00:22:44Yes, sir.
00:22:45Can you tell me the way to Clare High, please?
00:22:47Well, sir, do you know your way around here at all?
00:22:49You know the common?
00:22:50No, I'm afraid I don't.
00:22:51I'm a complete stranger.
00:22:52Well, it's a bit difficult, but if you turn right when you get out of the station and
00:22:55go down the road for about half a mile, sir.
00:22:59Did I hear you ask the way to Clare House?
00:23:01Yes, I did.
00:23:02Professor Malinger's place?
00:23:04Yes, he does live there.
00:23:05That's right, sir.
00:23:06Do you know the professor?
00:23:07Well, we never actually met.
00:23:10May I ask what concern it is of yours?
00:23:13There's recently been a murder in this district, as yet unsolved.
00:23:15That's why we're interested in strangers.
00:23:17I see.
00:23:18Well, for your information, I arrived in England yesterday from Africa.
00:23:22I'm a naturalist, and I have a contract to deliver live specimens to the professor.
00:23:26Is there anything else you'd like to know?
00:23:27You mustn't take offence, sir.
00:23:29I'm only doing my duty.
00:23:30Yes, of course.
00:23:31That's all right, sir.
00:23:32Now, Clare House, let me see.
00:23:34No great distance from here.
00:23:35It's not too easy to find.
00:23:37Smith.
00:23:37Sergeant.
00:23:38Have the duty lot gone off yet?
00:23:39They're just off my, Sergeant.
00:23:41Tell Constable Barrowclown I'd like to see him, would you?
00:23:43Yes, Sergeant.
00:23:44I'll get one of my men to take you right there, sir.
00:23:46Thank you, Sergeant.
00:23:50Sergeant.
00:23:51Who's on the Heathbeat tonight?
00:23:53I am, Sergeant.
00:23:54Show this gentleman the way to Clare House, would you?
00:23:56Be pleased to, sir.
00:23:57Good.
00:23:57My Constable will meet you outside, sir.
00:24:00Oh, I hope you get your men.
00:24:03Thank you, sir.
00:24:09The Master will be very glad to know you've arrived.
00:24:12He's been expecting you all day.
00:24:14Did my cases arrive?
00:24:15Yes, the courier brought them this morning.
00:24:17Good.
00:24:18May I offer you a drink, sir?
00:24:20Yes, thank you.
00:24:20Madeira or Masala?
00:24:21Madeira.
00:24:22Nothing broken?
00:24:23No, not as far as I know.
00:24:26The Professor had them taken into the laboratory.
00:24:30Nothing to be opened till you arrived.
00:24:32Good.
00:24:36Thank you, sir.
00:24:40I hear you've had a murder here.
00:24:44Yes, the body of a man was found on the Heath.
00:24:47Yes, sir, tell me...
00:24:48If you'll excuse me, sir, I'll tell the Master you're here.
00:24:52Yes, all right.
00:25:13Mr. Brightwell.
00:25:16I'm Claire Malinger.
00:25:17Mrs. Malinger?
00:25:18No.
00:25:19Miss Malinger, the Professor's my father.
00:25:21Oh, forgive me.
00:25:23But you see, I haven't met the person.
00:25:25Well, I feel I know you already.
00:25:26I've heard so much about you.
00:25:28Mrs. Malinger?
00:25:29Please, call me Claire.
00:25:47When we were going up the Limpopo, I was laid up with it for several days.
00:25:50I think I should love to go to Africa.
00:25:52I love warmth.
00:25:55I think it would be quite at home in the jungle and swamps.
00:25:58I don't think it would.
00:25:59It's most unpleasant.
00:26:02Snakes, crocodiles, insects.
00:26:04And all of them sting or bite.
00:26:07And moths?
00:26:08Yes, plenty.
00:26:09As a matter of fact, that's what this trip was about.
00:26:12I was collecting live specimens.
00:26:15How long will you be staying?
00:26:17I don't know.
00:26:18That depends on Dr. Malinger.
00:26:21Well, until tomorrow evening, I hope, at least.
00:26:23We have a party.
00:26:24Oh, I'm afraid you'll have to excuse me.
00:26:26I don't have any party clothes with me.
00:26:27I always travel live.
00:26:29That's all right.
00:26:29It's not that kind of party.
00:26:31The students, where my father sometimes lectures at the college,
00:26:33they're putting on a play.
00:26:35In the local theatre?
00:26:36No, here.
00:26:37We're lending them this room.
00:26:38Tomorrow night's the dress rehearsal.
00:26:40I'm in it.
00:26:41Acting in it?
00:26:42I certainly am.
00:26:44Watch the player bite.
00:26:46Wait and see.
00:26:48You'll be very surprised.
00:26:50Romeo and Juliet?
00:26:52Hardly.
00:26:52Mr. Brightwell.
00:26:54I'm sorry not to have been here to greet you when you arrived.
00:26:56Doctor?
00:26:57I trust that my daughter's been looking after you?
00:26:59Yes, very well.
00:27:00Did you offer him a drink, my dear?
00:27:01It's all right, sir.
00:27:02The bite of it, dear.
00:27:02Ah.
00:27:03Your daughter's been telling me the chief, too, is interested in entomology.
00:27:07Yes.
00:27:08Yes, indeed.
00:27:09I'm very much looking forward to seeing what you brought me.
00:27:11When your cases arrived this morning, I could hardly restrain myself from opening them at once.
00:27:16Do you think they weathered the voyage?
00:27:18Well, they were in excellent health when I handed them to the courier, sir.
00:27:21Tell me, Brightwell.
00:27:22Something you said in your last letter interested me very much.
00:27:25Now, this particular chrysalis to which you were referring,
00:27:28how many days after the incubation of the Caterpillar...
00:27:31Oh, Father, no more questions.
00:27:33Let the poor young man go to his room.
00:27:34He must be exhausted after his journey.
00:27:36There'll be plenty of time for that later, after dinner.
00:27:38Come, let me show you your room.
00:27:40Excuse me, sir.
00:27:59They're magnificent.
00:28:00Especially these.
00:28:02That'd be Dr. Africana.
00:28:03Yes.
00:28:04Well, they're not especially rare.
00:28:05I'm surprised you're not interested in something more unique.
00:28:07No, no, no.
00:28:09These are exactly what I want.
00:28:10You see, it's the size in which I'm interested.
00:28:13Why the size?
00:28:17Are you trying to develop a larger species?
00:28:22Magnificent.
00:28:39No, no.
00:28:41No, no.
00:29:19don't touch that leave it alone how dare you if this had been opened it would have ruined a year's
00:29:27work well it's certainly an incubator isn't it i'd have just raised the lid for a second
00:29:30a second would have been more than enough keep away from it if the temperature had dropped by
00:29:35even half a degree the entire experiment would have been ruined why what you've got in there

00:35:49Oh, God!
00:35:56It appears to be stuck.
00:36:18It appears to be stuck.
00:36:21Congratulations!
00:36:22You were very good.
00:36:23The stage has lost a great artist.
00:36:24Yeah, it wasn't what you expected, was it?
00:36:26Indeed it wasn't.
00:36:28Ah, it's harsher.
00:36:29Must be this week.
00:36:31Let's go outside and get some air.
00:36:33I'll meet you by the front gate in about ten minutes.
00:36:36I'll just change my clothes.
00:36:42Galvanism.
00:36:43It's an idea.
00:36:45There might be something in it.
00:36:47Granger,
00:36:48tomorrow we must see if we can obtain one of those new Wimshurst machines.
00:36:53Now, there's a place...
00:37:09Congratulations.
00:37:11Oh, thank you very much.
00:37:12An excellent entertainment.
00:37:13Who wrote it?
00:37:14As a matter of fact, I did.
00:37:15Ah, well, it was extremely enjoyable.
00:37:17Tell me,
00:37:18where did you get this idea of using galvanic stimulation?
00:37:21I made it up.
00:37:37Not here.
00:37:38Let's get further away from the house.
00:38:01Look at that move.
00:38:05Does it make you feel romantic?
00:38:07I don't need the moon to make me feel romantic.
00:38:10No.
00:38:11No!
00:38:13First you've got to catch me.
00:38:16Cover your eyes.
00:38:17Cover your eyes.
00:38:23No cheating.
00:38:45No cheating.
00:38:47No cheating.
00:38:49No cheating.
00:38:49No cheating.
00:38:56No cheating,
00:39:08Move it in.
00:39:18This way.
00:39:32This way.
00:39:33This way.
00:39:49This way.
00:39:55This way.
00:40:16Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
00:40:40All right, sir. All right.
00:40:45Can you speak, lad?
00:40:48Death.
00:40:48What did you say?
00:40:51Death's head.
00:40:53What was that?
00:40:57All right. If the doctor lives close by, I'll take you to him.
00:41:00Come on.
00:41:00Oh, oh, oh.
00:41:01Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
00:41:11Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:41:17oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:41:17oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:41:17oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:41:18oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh,
00:41:20oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
00:41:53There's been an accident.
00:41:54Only fetch your master at once, please.
00:42:03Granger, have you seen Mr. Brightlow?
00:42:05No, Mr. Clare, I haven't.
00:42:13You're quick, I think you can save him.
00:42:21There's nothing I can do, he's dead.
00:42:25Did you know him? Was he another one of your students?
00:42:29I've never seen him before in my life.
00:42:33I'll get the police van.
00:42:38No, sir. That's all he said. Just death's head. That's all.
00:42:43A lot of them say strange things before they go.
00:42:47It generally doesn't mean anything.
00:42:49Doesn't it, sir?
00:42:52I see that you're due for leave next week.
00:42:54I'd like you to hand the case over while you're away.
00:42:57I'd rather postpone my leave if you don't mind, sir.
00:43:00Perhaps it'll be good for you to get away.
00:43:04Maybe you're too close.
00:43:06Can't see the wood for the trees, eh?
00:43:08Are you taking me off the case?
00:43:10My dear man, of course not.
00:43:12Then I'd like to carry on, sir.
00:43:14Your daughter will be very disappointed.
00:43:16Oh, I'm sending her down to some relatives in Sussex now.
00:43:18I'd like to put her on the train herself.
00:43:19Yes, of course.
00:43:20Well, we've nothing further to discuss, but keep me informed.
00:43:23I will, sir.
00:44:12Sorry to keep you waiting, Meg.
00:44:14Don't worry, Father.
00:44:15There's plenty of time.
00:44:16Alan, I'll be back in the office in about a couple of hours.
00:44:19There's something I want you to do right away.
00:44:21Find out the name of the latest victim, who he was, and all you can about him.
00:44:24I know who he was, sir.
00:44:25Young man staying at Clare House with the managers.
00:44:27Just come back from Africa.
00:44:28Some sort of insect collector.
00:44:30How on earth do you know all this?
00:44:32He came in the station the other afternoon asking away to Clare House.
00:44:34We had quite a bit of a chat.
00:44:36Clare House, as fast as you can.
00:45:05You stay where you are, Meg.
00:45:06I'll try around the back.
00:45:07Well, don't be long.
00:45:08Come on.
00:45:09Come on.
00:45:10Come on.
00:45:13Come on.
00:45:24Come on.
00:45:53Dranger!
00:46:13Granger
00:46:13Are you there Granger
00:46:37Won't let her rip
00:46:37I will go
00:46:37Try not to Bert
00:46:47By his pirging
00:46:48Hind hope
00:46:50Gikal
00:54:39landlord. Mr. Thompson? Yes, and this is my daughter May. Right, you go right in, sir.
00:54:44There's some luggies in the coast, if you don't mind. Right, sir, I'll get in for you.
00:55:30I told you not to come in here. What do you want? You know very well. You must be patient.
00:55:40Why do we have to come to this wretched place? You know perfectly well why we had to leave
00:55:46Clarehouse. That man Quinella is dangerous, I think he suspects. We may even have to leave
00:55:52here. How long do I have to wait? Not long, but it will be quicker if you leave me alone.
00:55:58Now get out of here. And, uh... Keep in the house. Don't go outside.
00:56:15Let's go outside.
00:56:16Let's go outside.
00:56:20Let's go outside.
00:56:23Let's go outside.
00:56:26What the Chester's house has done.
00:56:26Let's go outside.
00:56:30Let's go outside.
00:56:36Maybe we'll outside.
00:56:36This theme is gone outside.
00:56:38A new scene is gone outside.
00:56:51Ah, good evening, Mr. Thompson.
00:56:53I hope you found your rooms to your liking, sir.
00:56:55Very comfortable, thank you.
00:56:57These pike are magnificent.
00:56:59Are there still any like them in these waters?
00:57:01Oh, no doubt there are still some there, sir, but too wily to get caught.
00:57:04That big bottom one was landed more than five years ago.
00:57:07Still, you may be lucky, sir.
00:57:08You may be lucky.
00:57:09It's a beauty, isn't it?
00:57:10About breakfast, sir, will the young lady be taking it at the same time as yourself?
00:57:14Yes, please.
00:57:15We usually make up a basket for the fishing gentlemen, sir.
00:57:17They mostly don't want to waste their time coming back to luncheon.
00:57:20If you give me notice the previous evening, I'll have one made up for you.
00:57:23That's very nice of you.
00:57:24Are you busy just now?
00:57:25Oh, no, sir.
00:57:26It's a bit early in the season yet for us.
00:57:28There are only two other guests here, and Mr. Warrender and his son from Birmingham.
00:57:33They came last year.
00:57:34Very nice gentlemen.
00:57:35Dinner will be served in about five minutes, sir.
00:57:37Is there anything else?
00:57:37Well, I'd like a glass of Madeira.
00:57:39It's not too sweet.
00:57:40I have a very excellent Madeira, sir.
00:57:41I'll get one ready for you.
00:57:44Old landlord.
00:57:45Yes?
00:57:46An old acquaintance of mine used to live near here.
00:57:48A Professor Manager.
00:57:50I wonder if you know him.
00:57:51Well, I know most of them that does around these parts, but Manager, did you say?
00:57:55Yes.
00:57:56No.
00:57:58No one of that name around here, sir?
00:58:13Ah, good evening.
00:58:15Good evening, Mr. Warrender.
00:58:17Hi.
00:58:18My name's Thompson.
00:58:19How do you do?
00:58:19How do you do?
00:58:20The landlord tells me you've been here before.
00:58:22Ah, indeed.
00:58:22And I hope to come many times again.
00:58:24The fishing's good, is it?
00:58:25Ah, the fishing's all right, but it's this place.
00:58:27They really make you comfortable.
00:58:29And the cellar, why, for a little out of the way place like this is quite remarkable.
00:58:32Mr. Thompson, sir, you're Madeira.
00:58:34Ah, will you join me?
00:58:35Ah, thank you.
00:58:36Will you make that too, please?
00:58:37Yes, certainly, sir.
00:58:41Here we are.
00:58:44Your medical health, Mr. Warrender?
00:58:46Ah, thank you.
00:58:47I wish you luck.
00:58:48These pike are the biggest I've ever seen.
00:58:51Them?
00:58:52You weren't taken in by them, were you?
00:58:54They're fakes.
00:58:56Fakes?
00:58:57You take another look at them.
00:58:59What's the idea?
00:59:01Bring in the customers.
00:59:02They all hope they'll have the same luck.
00:59:04Well, he certainly took me in.
00:59:07You planning a long stay?
00:59:09Well, I have a month's holiday from the bank.
00:59:11Bank, eh?
00:59:12I'm in building business myself.
00:59:14Warrender and Edgecombe.
00:59:15We're not unknown in Midland, you know.
00:59:17Hey.
00:59:18Ah.
00:59:19This is Mr. Warrender, my daughter.
00:59:21How do you do?
00:59:21Ah, how do you do, my dear?
00:59:23Do you like fishing?
00:59:25Oh, I don't actually fish, sir, but I enjoy watching my father.
00:59:28Ah, more than my boy does.
00:59:30All he's interested in is bugs, butterflies and moths.
00:59:32Thank you, sir.
00:59:33Still, he's a good lad.
00:59:34Done very well at university.
00:59:36Ah, here he is.
00:59:37And William, we have company.
00:59:39This is Mr. Thompson and his very charming daughter.
00:59:41How do you do?
00:59:42How do you do, sir?
00:59:42I understand from your father that you're an entomologist.
00:59:45Really?
00:59:46Oh, I'm sure my father didn't tell you that, sir.
00:59:49At home, I'm known as Billy the Bug Catcher.
00:59:51Ah, that's my hobby.
00:59:53I'm actually reading science at university.
00:59:55Ah, yes.
00:59:55Ah, at Oxford.
00:59:56Dinner is served.
00:59:57Why, thank you.
00:59:58May you be mother?
00:59:59Yes, of course, father.
01:00:01Ah.
01:00:06Soup.
01:00:35Oh, that's another big one.
01:00:42Let me have it.
01:00:52Hello.
01:00:54You caught anything?
01:00:55No, not much.
01:00:58Oh, it must be the weather.
01:01:01He's not doing so badly, is he?
01:01:03Oh, aye.
01:01:05Before you get more involved, father, I'll go off and pick some blackberries.
01:01:07All right, darling.
01:01:08I'll see you later, then.
01:01:09Oh, William's up there over the hill, catching butterflies.
01:01:12You might see him.
01:01:13I hope I do.
01:01:14Bye-bye.
01:01:14Bye.
01:01:16Aren't you going to fish?
01:01:17No, not today.
01:01:17I thought I'd watch you.
01:01:19Ah.
01:01:20What are you using?
01:01:21Maggots.
01:01:22Oh.
01:01:27Perhaps you're using the wrong sort of bait.
01:01:31And the wrong sort of rod.
01:02:00Hello, Meg.
01:02:01Oh, hello.
01:02:03Did you see a peacock fly past?
01:02:04A peacock?
01:02:05It's a butterfly.
01:02:07Oh, is it one with red and blue wings?
01:02:09Yes, that's it.
01:02:10Red and blue wings.
01:02:10Where did it go?
01:02:11Is it one like this?
01:02:15Yes.
01:02:16Good heavens.
01:02:17How on earth did you catch it?
01:02:18I didn't catch it.
01:02:19It settled on me.
01:02:20Oh, good.
01:02:21Good.
01:02:22Well, just pop it in here, shall we?
01:02:24In there?
01:02:25What's that for?
01:02:26Well, it's a killing bottle.
01:02:29Cyanide.
01:02:29Oh, no.
01:02:31Why ever not?
01:02:32I like butterflies.
01:02:34Well, so do I.
01:02:36And I want that one for my collection.
01:02:38I like them flying about.
01:02:40Meg, you can't have them flying about in a collection.
01:02:42Now, come on, pop it in.
01:02:44Oh.
01:02:45Now, what on earth did you do that for?
01:02:47So that you couldn't kill it.
01:02:49Oh, girls.
01:02:52Ah.
01:02:52Oh, my God.
01:03:12Hey.
01:03:14Hey.
01:03:16Hey.
01:03:17Hey.
01:03:20Oh, baby, baby, come on, come on.
01:03:23Hey, baby, behind the tree.
01:03:29Oh, baby.
01:03:36Get away.
01:03:49What have you got in there?
01:03:52A moth.
01:03:53I think it's a death's head.
01:03:56Hey!
01:03:57What are you doing here?
01:03:58This is private property.
01:03:59Mr Miles said that I could come here and it just...
01:04:01Well, please leave.
01:04:03Now.
01:04:10That's the second specimen I've lost today.
01:04:12Who was she?
01:04:13I don't know.
01:04:14I've never seen her before.
01:04:16Hey, look.
01:04:17There goes another.
01:04:17Oh, leave it.
01:04:47There...
01:04:48Oh, my God.
01:05:18Oh, my God.
01:05:48I don't know. Two weeks, three weeks, perhaps longer. I don't know.
01:05:52You said that before.
01:05:54I've done everything I can.
01:05:57Something's gone wrong, hasn't it?
01:05:59Yes.
01:06:01Galvanism doesn't work.
01:06:03It needs nourishment.
01:06:06Blood.
01:06:07Blood.
01:06:10Blood.
01:06:12Human blood.
01:06:14Blood of a young girl.
01:06:17That will do perfectly.
01:06:32Good morning.
01:06:34Aren't you the girl who was catching butterflies the other afternoon?
01:06:36Oh, it wasn't me.
01:06:37It was the boy I was with, William.
01:06:40Well, I'm so glad I met you.
01:06:41I wanted to apologize.
01:06:43I was so rude.
01:06:44You see, I can't bear to see beautiful things killed or injured.
01:06:48I don't either.
01:06:49I let one go yesterday.
01:06:51Well, then we're friends then, aren't we?
01:06:54I haven't seen you around here before.
01:06:56Do you live around here?
01:06:57No, I'm afraid I don't.
01:06:59I'm on a visit with my father.
01:07:01We're from London.
01:07:02London?
01:07:04Well, you must find it very uninteresting around here.
01:07:07Oh, no.
01:07:07I love the country.
01:07:09Where are you going now?
01:07:10Oh, just for a walk.
01:07:12Well, I'm just going for a drive.
01:07:15Well, why don't you jump in and we can go together.
01:08:09That's a mission.
01:08:12We must stop.
01:08:35Meg.
01:08:37Meg.
01:08:39Meg, when I give the sign, you will wake.
01:08:44Do you understand?
01:08:45I understand.
01:08:48And you will return at the same time, by the same entrance, tomorrow.
01:08:54Do you understand?
01:08:57I understand.
01:08:59And when you wake, you will remember nothing of all this.
01:09:03Do you understand?
01:09:06I understand.
01:09:07And you will obey.
01:09:10I will obey.
01:09:34I will obey.
01:09:42Meg.
01:09:43Meg.
01:09:44Meg, where have you been?
01:09:45It's late.
01:09:45I was worried about you.
01:09:47Just for a walk.
01:09:48But William came back hours ago.
01:09:49Oh, I didn't go with William.
01:09:51Now, look, you shouldn't go out alone.
01:09:54You look very pale.
01:09:56You all right?
01:09:57Yes, I'm all right.
01:09:58Look, if you don't mind, Father, I think I'll just go up to bed.
01:10:01But don't you want some dinner first?
01:10:02Oh, no, I don't feel like eating.
01:10:05Meg, are you sure you're all right?
01:10:06Yes, yes, I'm all right.
01:10:08I've just got a bit of a headache, that's all.
01:10:11All right.
01:10:12Hope you feel better in the morning.
01:10:14Good night, Father.
01:10:15Good night, Meg.
01:10:23Good night.
01:10:58Clem?
01:10:59Claire.
01:11:00I didn't think...
01:11:01I couldn't get here any sooner.
01:11:03No.
01:11:04Let's move away from here.
01:11:05I don't act fast.
01:11:37I don't know.
01:11:39I don't know.
01:11:43I don't know.
01:11:50Dad!
01:11:53Dad!
01:11:55Dad!
01:12:15I was very lucky I caught it again.
01:12:18I still think they look prettier flying about.
01:12:22Do you realize it's very rare to find one of these in England?
01:12:25Well, they do come from Europe, but mostly further south.
01:12:28Chrysalis must have come over in a crate of fruit or something.
01:12:33You know, that death's head shows up very well.
01:12:36Yes.
01:12:38What did you say, William?
01:12:40Oh, it's this moth I caught this morning, sir.
01:12:43Achorontia atropos.
01:12:44It's known as the death's head moth because of the markings on the back of the thorax, sir.
01:12:48Would you like a look?
01:12:49Yes, please.
01:12:52Be very careful not to touch the wings, sir.
01:12:54They're covered in delicate little scales.
01:12:56Hence the name Lepidoptera, scaled wings.
01:13:00Yes.
01:13:01Do you have a stronger grasp so that I can see them more clearly?
01:13:04The scales?
01:13:05Yes.
01:13:06Well, I could show you underneath the microscope.
01:13:08I believe I have some scales on a slide here, sir.
01:13:12May I have a look, Father?
01:13:13Oh, sure.
01:13:14Yes, that's the one.
01:13:23Yeah.
01:13:23Would you like a look, sir?
01:13:39That's fascinating.
01:13:40Thank you, William.
01:13:42Quite a hobby you've got, though.
01:13:43Yes, sir.
01:13:45Would you like a look, may I?
01:13:53I can't see a thing.
01:13:54No, no, of course not.
01:13:55You've moved it out of the light.
01:13:59Here we are.
01:14:00Be careful.
01:14:03There, Lord.
01:14:05Sir?
01:14:06Where's the nearest telegraph office?
01:14:08Well, there's a sub-post office in the village, sir, but the stable boy will take a message for you.
01:14:11Thanks.
01:14:11I'd rather do it myself.
01:14:12Oh.
01:14:17Very pretty.
01:14:18Yes.
01:14:19But I still think you shouldn't kill them.
01:14:24You couldn't wait, could you?
01:14:27Wasn't it I who created you?
01:14:30And how have you rewarded me?
01:14:31By causing death and destruction.
01:14:35And now, I have been insane enough to create another.
01:14:39You mean it's ready?
01:14:41Yes.
01:14:42In a few days, it would have matured.
01:14:44And you would have had the companion you seek.
01:14:47A male of your own species.
01:14:49But now I realize what I have created.
01:14:52I'm going to destroy you both.
01:15:17Oh, hello you two.
01:15:19Hello, Mr. Warrender.
01:15:20Are they marching, sir?
01:15:21Oh, I will today.
01:15:23Where's your father, Meg?
01:15:25Isn't he coming down?
01:15:26He went into Farnham to meet someone.
01:15:28Ah, pity. He's missing something.
01:15:32Oh, where are you two off to?
01:15:34Oh, we're going for a little walk.
01:15:35Oh, well, don't be late.
01:15:37No, no, of course not.
01:15:59Hey, William, come and lend me a hand. I've fouled the line.
01:16:04Here, son, hold the rod.
01:16:07Pull it back. That's right.
01:16:16That's it.
01:16:30William, give me the gaff.
01:16:31William, give me the gaff.
01:17:12Evening, sir.
01:17:13Well, hello, sergeant. That was quick work.
01:17:15OK, Mr. No, I've got your telegraph, sir.
01:17:17The steam engine's done half-gurl.
01:17:19Would you like some tea?
01:17:20Do it with a cup, sir.
01:17:21I thought you would.
01:17:22I, uh, bought those reports you asked for.
01:17:28Just give the landlord a shout, will you?
01:17:30Oh, yes, sir.
01:17:34Landlord!
01:17:38Doesn't seem to be anybody about, sir.
01:17:40Never mind. Sit down, sergeant.
01:17:41See what you found out while you're waiting.
01:17:43Oh, yes.
01:17:45Now, that, uh, body that we found in the cellar...
01:17:48Yes, he was the butler. I know all about him.
01:17:49It's the other one I'm interested in.
01:17:51The one who said deathhead.
01:17:52Well, sir, yes.
01:17:57Frederick John Britwell, age 27, British, no address.
01:18:00Just returned from Africa.
01:18:02Educated Worcester and Oxford.
01:18:04Honours in Natural History.
01:18:05F-R-E-S.
01:18:06We're getting somewhere, Alan.
01:18:07F-R-E-S, sir.
01:18:08A fellow of the Royal Intermological Society.
01:18:11For someone who studies insects.
01:18:13Now.
01:18:13Carl Oscar Maringer, age unknown.
01:18:16Believe, born in Vienna.
01:18:18Degree in Biochemistry at that university.
01:18:20F-Z-S-F-R-E-S.
01:18:22Naturalised British subject.
01:18:24Awarded Royal Victorian Order for Field Research.
01:18:28What's this?
01:18:30Field Research in Entomology.
01:18:32And Thesis on the Reproduction Processes of Phylum Anthropeda.
01:18:40I found the link, Alan.
01:18:42From Billy the Bugcatcher.
01:18:43Billy there, sir.
01:18:44The young lad is staying here.
01:18:46Remember these?
01:18:47Oh, yes.
01:18:48We found these on the heath.
01:18:49Yes.
01:18:50Now, these are the scales from some huge flying insect.
01:18:54A moth.
01:18:55Moth?
01:18:58You hope for them all eggs, sir.
01:19:00Oh, no, I'm not.
01:19:01The young lad I mentioned just now.
01:19:03The Bugcatcher, gentlemen.
01:19:04That's right.
01:19:04Now, he collects butterflies and moths.
01:19:06He showed me some scales from a death's head moth under his microscope.
01:19:09These are identical.
01:19:10But they're a hundred times larger than normal size.
01:19:14Now, I believe that Professor Maringer, either by accident or design,
01:19:18has created a huge death's head moth that lives on human flesh.
01:19:22Can't have a risk moth.
01:19:23He kept this at Claire House.
01:19:24He must have done it in his laboratory, I suppose.
01:19:26But what about the girl?
01:19:27What girl?
01:19:28His daughter.
01:19:29And what about her?
01:19:29She must have known about it.
01:19:32Ah, Sergeant.
01:19:34Landlord, could we have some tea, please?
01:19:36Oh, yes, the moon, Mr. Thompson.
01:19:37You got here quicker than I expected, Sergeant.
01:19:39He's in there.
01:19:39Who is, sir?
01:19:41But surely Mr. Warrender told you.
01:19:43Tell me what, sir.
01:19:44Sergeant, there's been an accident.
01:19:46A man's been found drowned in the river.
01:19:48Well, I said it was an accident, but you'll have to make up your own mind.
01:19:51This way, Sergeant.
01:19:53Better have a look.
01:19:54Yes.
01:19:56Are you still incognito, sir?
01:19:58Yes.
01:19:59Right.
01:20:04These accidents are always very distressing, sir.
01:20:11What is it?
01:20:14Wait here, will you, sir?
01:20:22You back already?
01:20:24I think you'd better come and have a look at this, sir.
01:20:26Why?
01:20:27He's not drowned.
01:20:27I think it's one of ours.
01:20:29How do you mean?
01:20:30Come and have a look at these wounds.
01:20:37Oh, just a minute, Sergeant.
01:20:38Do you think Mr. Thompson should see this?
01:20:40Mr. Thompson, sir, is Detective Inspector Quennell, the Metropolitan Police.
01:20:42Detective?
01:20:43I thought he was something to do with the bank.
01:20:44He's travelling incognito, so you hear an important case.
01:20:47Oh.
01:20:49You see what I meant about the wounds, sir?
01:20:50Yes, exactly the same as the others.
01:20:53Did you know this man?
01:20:54Yes, sir.
01:20:55That's young Clem.
01:20:56He was undergardener up at the old house.
01:21:00I need to find his body.
01:21:01Oh, just after you left, sir.
01:21:03Mr. Warrender was down at the river fishing with your daughter and Master William, sir.
01:21:07You mean they saw it, too?
01:21:09I'm afraid they did, sir.
01:21:10Well, where are they now?
01:21:11I think they're up at the old house, sir, Mr. Miles' house.
01:21:14Master William often goes up there to see his collection of butterflies.
01:21:17He's a very nice gentleman, sir.
01:21:18How far is this house?
01:21:19About two miles up the road.
01:21:21Is your cab available?
01:21:22Yes, sir.
01:21:22I want you to take us there immediately.
01:21:23Sergeant, are you on?
01:21:24Yes, sir.
01:21:25I'll see this door's locked, will you?
01:21:26Yes, sir.
01:21:44Is this driver all right, sir?
01:21:46I hope so.
01:21:48Sir, do you think Miles is the same person as Professor Malinger?
01:21:51I'm sure of it.
01:21:52I'm sorry.
01:21:54My father cannot see you.
01:21:56Oh.
01:21:58Never mind.
01:21:59It wasn't important.
01:22:01Good night.
01:22:02Wait.
01:22:04What did you want?
01:22:06Well, it's really nothing.
01:22:08It's just that I wanted to be sure about this.
01:22:11I think it's a death's head.
01:22:17It is.
01:22:19You know about moths, then?
01:22:21Yes.
01:22:22Good heavens.
01:22:24Well, thank you.
01:22:25Did you kill it?
01:22:27Yes.
01:22:28Yes, it's from my collection.
01:22:30Lovely, isn't it?
01:22:32I'll see you to the end of the drive.
01:22:34No, no, no, it's all right.
01:22:35I can find my own way in the dark.
01:22:37Not as well as I.
01:24:10Help me!
01:24:16Can you manage, sir?
01:24:17Yes, put that fire out.
01:24:18Right.
01:24:30What's happened, sir?
01:24:31She's fainted. That's all. Give me a hand.
01:24:32Right. I'll get in first.
01:24:42The fire's out, sir. Is she all right? Yes, she's fine.
01:24:48Look after her. Get a lantern.
01:24:59Over here, Alan.
01:25:08No!
01:25:09You might hit the boys. Fire over them.
01:25:21You all right, William? I'm all right, sir.
01:25:23Are you sure?
01:25:27You'll never hit it, Alan.
01:25:30Give me that lantern.
01:25:31I'm not sure.
01:25:50It's a sign.
01:25:50I know.
01:25:51I'm sorry.
01:26:25What are we going to tell them, sir?
01:26:27They'll never believe this or the owner.
01:26:29They'll never believe it anywhere.
01:26:54They'll never believe it anywhere.
