All language subtitles for The Werewolf Versus the Vampire Woman - 1971.eng1

The inspector might have
at least waited until morning.

I mean, a job like this
in the middle of the night.

And with a full moon.

Come now, Muller,
stop complaining.

The inspector needs
a postmortem right away.

I saw all the victims.
What a horrible sight.

I'm used to seeing death,

but this goes beyond
anything I've seen.

Everyone thinks
a werewolf did the Killing.

And they're convinced that werewolf is the
body we'll be carrying out an autopsy on.

Ignorance and superstition
won't disappear from their minds.

Too bad.

His name was Waldemar Daninsky.

Right after he came to Altsee,
the horrible murders commenced,

and they were all committed
on nights with a full moon.

Werewolves, silver bullets,
and all that nonsense.

Mysterious deaths in the Space Age.

Absolutely ridiculous.

There are mysterious forces
we ignore on Earth,

and when those forces are unleashed,

they can lead men
to worse things than death.

And there is very little
that science can explain.

Please, Muller,
stop talking nonsense.

Doctor Hartwig, look at that scar.

It's pentagonal.

The mark of the werewolf.

I'll start with an incision
in his chest.

Don't you want to start
on the stomach?

He's supposed to be a werewolf, right?

According to the legend, if we take
the bullets that killed him,

he can come back to life.
Let's see.

Please, will you get me
the other scalpel?

I'm going to take out
the silver bullets,

and I assure you he'll stay
as dead as before.

How are you getting on
with the essay you're writing?

You're almost finished, right?

I'm still working on it. It's not easy.
There's so much to write.

Let's see whether I remember.

It's something about black magic,

witchcraft, professed worship of Satan,

and the Inquisition in France.
Is that right?

Fairly close.

Lately, Genevieve and I have
found some stuff

about Wandesa Dárvula de Nadasdy,

a Hungarian countess
from the 15th century.

There's quite a legend about her.

A rather horrible one.

She participated in witches' Sabbath
and worshipped Satan.

She sacrificed beautiful damsels
to drink their blood

because she also had
the mark of the vampire.

Then, the witch hunts began.

The inquisition tried
to condemn her,

but all who tried her
were mysteriously murdered.

One night, the Countess died.

Somebody stabbed her in the heart
with a silver cross.

The Cross of Mayenza.

- What happened to her corpse?
- It lies buried in a secret place.

Genevieve and I have come
across an old map

that describes the place
where the tomb can be found.

It is in the north,
near a godforsaken village.

We leave tomorrow by car.

But I'm scared.

Your enthusiasm is very contagious.

I wish I could go with you,
but I must go to Istanbul.

Drug trafficking.

My dear police officer.

Please don't take unnecessary risks.

Don't worry.

I've seen all the James Bond pictures.
I know all his tricks by heart.

Let's dance and forget about witchcraft
and drug trafficking in Istanbul.

I will try to convince you to marry me.

And that's all we'll talk about, okay?

Okay.

Not a single sign.
Not an indication.

We've been driving
on this road for miles.

Maybe that silly village
just melted away.

I told you, we should have asked the man
at the gas station, at the crossroads,

before we took this mess of a road.

I'm afraid we're lost.

We should have already
reached the village.

Soon it will be dark,
and I don't like it.

And we're almost out of gas.

What a place!
It creeps me out.

Perhaps Count Dracula will appear

and Kindly invite us to spend
the night at his castle.

Lets go.

Look. It looks like
there's someone at that house.

We'll ask for help.

Is there anybody here?

Is there no one around?

Good evening.

My friend Genevieve Benoit,
Waldemar Daninsky.

Nice to meet you.
Your friend told me what's wrong,

and the problem seems hard to solve.

I'm practically the only one around here.

The monastery and the farms
have been uninhabited for years.

And what about the village?
Is it far?

Yes, it is. Quite far, in fact.
I'm really sorry.

Please, could you put us up for the night?

Tomorrow we'll try to reach
the village, one way or another.

I suppose we can find some gasoline.

Couldn't we try to go now?

Have you got a car?

No, I don't even have a bicycle,

and the village is over 20 miles away.

Listen, I've come up with a solution.

Be my guests for this week.

Pierre, my handyman,
is coming on Sunday.

He has a car and can take you to the
village.

You can get gasoline and
come back for your car.

Have you got a telephone?

Sorry, no telephone
and no electricity.

I'm a writer.
I was looking for a place to be alone.

I found an old house
less than a mile away from here,

I rented it, refurbished it...

and I've been living there
for more than six months.

However...

sometimes I miss
having someone to talk to,

so I welcome the opportunity
of having guests.

Thank you, Mr. Daninsky.

We'll be your guests till Sunday, and you
won't complain about lack of conversation.

I'm writing a book
about Gothic monuments.

The monastery you saw
this afternoon is a real treasure.

Here, in the north of France, there are
many buildings that are

practically unknown.

Will you have your book
published in France?

No, I don't think so.

It's for the University of Cologne.

As we told you, Elvira and I are
writing our final thesis.

That's why we are here.

Perhaps you could help us,
since you know the area so well.

I'd be glad to help you.

What is it you are looking for?

We are looking for the tomb
of a famous witch,

a countess expert in black magic
who turned into a vampire,

the female version
of the Marquis de Sade.

Her name was
Wandesa Dárvula de Nadasdy.

If you will excuse us,
we're a little tired.

Are you coming, Genevieve?

Yes.

Good night, Mr. Daninsky.
We'll see you in the morning.

Hope you sleep well.

I hate cold water.

Tomorrow I'll complain to our host.

Elvira, are you coming to bed?

- What's the matter?
- Genevieve,

staying here is just crazy.

There wasn't much we could do.

This man has been lying the whole time.

There are strange things
going on here.

Did you notice how the table was set?
Only a woman could have that touch.

Besides, he told us
that there was no electricity,

yet I saw bulbs and switches.
Why don't they work?

Okay, so the table was properly set,

but all he served
was a dish of cold cuts.

He could have done that himself.

As for the electricity,
maybe it hasn't been connected yet.

Another thing. Did you notice how upset
he became when I mentioned Wandesa?

He almost fainted.

Elvira, come now, go to bed
and stop making up wild stories.

I'm convinced that he is
the kind of person who helps others.

I don't think he's that strange.

He just wants company
and conversation. That's all.

Genevieve, there is no lock.

That means we'll have
to leave the door open.

Cut it out, will you?
Please, let me sleep, Elvira.

I'm tired. Don't be afraid.

No vampire is coming into the room.
This isn't Dracula's house.

Take a couple of sleeping pills.

They're not very strong,
but they will do you good.

You'll sleep like an angel.
It's been an awful day.

You took some, didn't you?

Sure, I always do.

Please, let me sleep, I'm tired.

Please, go away.
It's full moon.

Please leave...
If not die.

Werewolf.

Please, calm down.

Tomorrow I'll explain.

You should try to rest now.

That woman is my sister.

There's nothing
you should be afraid of.

She won't do you harm.

She's mentally disturbed.

I never thought she'd dare do this.

I'd like to apologize.

Don't worry, it's all over.

Your sister scared me.
I was nervous and tired.

Seeing her here was
a tremendous surprise.

But I'm much better now.

I'll have some rest.

Right, tomorrow I'll explain it
whenever you want.

She's not all right,

but she won't do any harm.

Try to sleep now.
Good night.

Good night.

Years ago, my family
had a serious accident.

My sister, who's never been strong,
was badly disturbed,

but she isn't dangerous,
so I couldn't put her in an asylum.

I preferred to isolate her from society
because it would've made

her life miserable.

That's why I came to this lonely place.

She's fine here,

takes care of me...

keeps the house,

and on the off chance
that somebody comes to see me,

- she hides in her room.
- Why didn't you tell us this before?

I was afraid of scaring you.

I preferred to wait.

But that reaction...

By the way, do you remember
what she said to you?

She talks nonsense sometimes.

I don't remember anything.
It was all so confusing.

She seemed to want us to leave.

Help!

Genevieve.

They are my last hope.

If you go on frightening them,

they'll leave even if they have to walk.

You could have killed that girl.

She was in the shack,

looking at the chains.

She found out everything, Waldemar.

There's nothing to find out.

Everything's secured.

Elizabeth, please, leave them alone.

I beg you.

We should leave.
It's the most sensible decision.

I don't mind walking 30 miles.

- Not even 30,000.
- No, to hell with sensibility. We'll stay.

Don't you realize
that she almost killed me?

I don't trust her sweet,
kind little brother.

Only God knows what they dare to do.

Waldemar isn't a bad person.

He won't let anything happen to us.
He'll keep an eye on his sister.

He needs help, too.

He's had so much bad luck,
just like his sister.

They live with a terrible burden.

We have to find out what it is.

Right, but what did he say
about the chains and the blood stains?

There is a lot of big game here,
deer and wild pigs,

and the former owner
used to skin them there.

Yes, it's possible,

but I warn you, if that crazy woman
appears again,

I'll leave so quickly you won't see
the dust from my shoes.

Elvira, be careful.

Don't let your soft heart
lead you into trouble.

You could regret it.

Let's go downstairs.

We'll show him our documents.

He seems to be interested in helping us.

Too interested, I'd say.

There's no doubt. It says something
about a place called Devil's Crossing,

near the chapel of Saint Anne.

There was a monk there,
disciple of Satan, called Baptiste Verdung,

who celebrated black mass under
the direction of the Countess of Nadasdy.

I know where the crossing
and the ruins of the chapel are.

Aren't they near the monastery we saw?

The tomb is only a few meters away,
though I've never thought about it.

It was very stupid of me.

All right, we'll go tomorrow.

In the old days,
those who committed suicide

or who were executed
for practicing witchcraft

were buried at a crossing like this one.

They then became ideal places
to summon Satan or celebrate black magic.

If this document is correct,
this must be the tomb.

Wandesa Dárvula of Nadasdy,

Satan's mistress, she found
the death she deserved.

No one must disturb her rest,
may God have mercy on her soul.

It wasn't a legend!
She existed.

We found the tomb
like we wanted to, right?

Let's not profane it.
Let's go.

Nonsense! We won't be sure she's there
until we've opened the coffin.

Besides, I want to take some photographs.

They'll be wonderful,
and we'll be famous!

As you wish, but I won't stay here
when you open the coffin.

I'll wait for you near the ruins
of the chapel.

Don't worry.
This will avoid a hemorrhage.

Thank you, Mr. Daninsky.

The legend says that if the silver cross
is pulled out of her chest,

Wandesa would come back to life and that
the breath of her

resurrection would be red.

It's only a legend.
Where is Elvira?

She didn't want to see
the body of the countess,

so she went to the ruins
of Saint Anne's chapel.

Excuse me, could you tell me ...?

The handyman is coming
tomorrow from town.

I'd like to be in Paris by then
with all our friends,

in the middle of traffic,
with life pulsating around us.

I'm longing to talk to Marcel.

Marcel? I don't believe you.
You're interested in someone else now.

Maybe, but everything is so
strange here, so absurd.

I'm beginning to think
that everything is unreal,

like a dream, and when I wake up,
no dead people will resurrect,

there'll be no vampires,
no ghosts, nothing.

And Waldemar won't exist either?

Though you were
In his arms this afternoon,

he's also part of our delusions,

like everything that's happened
since we started this awful trip.

If Marcel were here.
He's a policeman, and

I'm sure he'd find an
explanation for everything.

The truth is that I'm getting
more and more frightened.

Elvira, do you know any prayers?

Of course I do, why?

Then pray.
It's all we have.

Pray with all the strength of our faith.

I'm thirsty. I'm gonna go
to the kitchen to get some water.

Can I get you something?

No, thank you, but don't stay too long.
I don't want to be alone.

Come...

Come to me...

"When there's a full moon on the same night
as the Night of Walpurgis,

the cross made
from the chalice of Mayenza

will stab the heart of the man
who suffers from being a werewolf.

If the woman who loves him
risks her life and does it,

light will beat shadows

and the soul of the doomed man
will have peace forever."

Genevieve? Genevieve?

Elvira...

Elvira...

Genevieve, my God!

Come...

Come with us...

Mix your blood with ours,

and you'll enjoy all pleasures.

Satan still has power.

Stupidly, people keep ignoring
his strength.

Wandesa has come back to life,
along with Verdung, the evil monk.

They'll gather more and more power.

And the most terrible thing is
that the Night of Walpurgis is near.

All evils will start again.

According to the legend, Satan
appears on the Night of Walpurgis.

This is the eternal fight
man has faced since his creation.

His pride is his damnation.

The fallen angel tries to take
man to the breaking point

- so that he surrenders forever.
- So what are we going to do?

Pierre won't be long,
and you'll go to town with him.

And then, when you come back,
you'll return to Paris.

We should inform the police, let all the
people in town know what has happened.

- Together, we can fight.
- There's nothing anyone can do.

I must fight alone.
You have to believe me.

Genevieve is still here.
I won't leave her...

or you.

I won't leave you because I love you.

I love you with all my heart,

and while we stay together,

I won't be afraid of anybody.

Elvira, Pierre must be about to arrive.

Go to town and bring some gas,
because we'll need the car.

I'll stay here.

I have to do something,

and I can't accept any help.

Take this cross,

and keep it with you at all times.

It's the only thing that can
protect you against Wandesa.

Elvira.

I'll introduce you to my girlfriend
when we get to the village.

Her name's Mabille.
You'll like her.

Would you take me to the post office?
I have a letter to mail.

There's no post office in the village.
If you want, we can leave it at Jean's inn.

Every Friday a van comes
and takes the mail.

Listen.

People fear those
who live near the monastery.

And they say I'm crazy
for accepting a job from Daninsky.

Before your friend came to live here,
the house already had a bad reputation.

It was built by a family called Jacquier.

They came from the south. But one day,
old Jacquier hung himself.

Soon after, his son Jacques
died in a hunting accident.

His rifle exploded,

and the explosion blew his head off.

These things happen, they do,

but people started gossiping
and saying the house was haunted.

The fact is, the widow
decided to take off

and asked me to rent out the house.

I rented it to Mr. Daninsky,
who came to live with his sister.

Since the poor old devil wasn't quite sane,
people kept on making up stories.

One night the transformer was struck by
lightning. The power in the house went out.

No electrician would come fix it.

What do you think?

And the stories
about the curse started again.

People.

Well.

Poor Elizabeth.

The curse had to get you, too.

But I'll save your soul.

The evil powers of Wandesa
won't harm you.

What I'm about to do with your body

is the only salvation for your spirit.

There will be a full moon tonight.

Wandesa will be stronger than ever
and ready to attack again.

You can't sleep here.

Sleep in the old wing
and lock your door.

Don't you put down
that cross for a single second.

You're staying with me.
You're in danger, too.

No. That's not possible.
I've got something important to do.

Why should I lock the door?
It won't make a difference.

If you love me, do as I say.
It's the only solution.

Don't you understand, Elvira?

Do as I say
and don't go out till dawn.

Come.

The curse caught up
with me in Tibet.

That's when I turned
into a werewolf.

Then I managed to hide
in a village on the Austrian border.

Elizabeth would help me by chaining me to
the wall whenever there was a full moon,

but once I managed to escape
and I murdered some innocent people.

Murders kept happening.

The villagers found me,
and they shot me with silver bullets.

Ever since I've been forced
to wander between life and death.

Fear and hatred chase me.

Only love can help you, right?

Only love can drive the hand

that stabs me with the cross
when there's a full moon.

That's why you were looking
so desperately for the cross.

Misfortune brought you here.

And I forgot all the horror I might cause.

Genevieve's blood brought
Wandesa back to life.

It did.

She turned your friend
into a vampire,

and she tried to do
the same with Elizabeth.

My poor sister.

Elvira, you could be her next victim.

Wandesa will stay alive
until the Night of Walpurgis.

Then Satan will come and help her,
and they will dominate the world.

We must find where she's hiding
and finish her off.

There are so many places to look.

The old farm, the monastery ruins,
the cemetery.

We'll try.

Her evil power ends
where the power of the cross begins.

I'll go check the cemetery.

Genevieve hides there.

Yes. Vampires sleep in graves.

You must leave.

I won't let you run that terrible risk.

Where am I supposed to go?
To the village?

The people are ignorant
and easily aroused.

Pierre must have told them many things.

Maybe they already
know what you saw last night.

Besides, Wandesa
will want revenge on them,

since it was their predecessors
who caused her death.

I'm not leaving.

I'll be with you until it's over.

Easy.
It's over now.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

Genevieve attacked me.

The cross couldn't keep her away.

She must have contaminated me.

My God.

She'll never ever return.

She doesn't exist now.

And that mark she left on you
won't have any effect.

Genevieve is now free.

At least you've saved her soul.

Pray for her.
That's the only thing you can do.

We've been roaming
around these ruins for a day,

and we still don't know
where she's hiding.

We still have to check
the passageways and the catacombs.

They form a maze,

and Wandesa knows it by heart.

What's she up to? She hasn't been back
since Genevieve's death.

There will still be
a full moon tonight.

You must chain me to the wall.

Don't go too far, and for the love of God,
don't put the cross down.

Police?

Captain Fonteyn, please.

Boss, this is Inspector Marcel.

I finally have some news.
Yes, a letter.

But there's something I don't get.

I'm concerned.

I'm concerned. The letter comes
from Gilben, in the north,

but it was written in a place
called Village des Chats.

I think it's a small village
in the mountains.

Apparently, they don't have
a post office there

and they have to take
their mail to another village.

I was informed at the post office.

Yes.

I assure you it wasn't easy at all.

Let me tell you, boss,
I'm very concerned about all this.

How much time do I need?

One week.
Yes, a week should do.

Thank you, boss.

I'll find it.

I'm leaving tonight.

Thank you.

Wandesa, here's your prisoner.
I obeyed your orders.

You command and I always obey.

What do you want me to say?

I've never heard of those two women.

I can assure you
they were never here.

Take a look at this letter.

It was sent from Gilben.

Please check the stamp.

You're a good cop, very persistent.

You've been asking around,
the police, the doctor,

the pharmacist,

even the butcher.

As you can see,
I'm very well informed.

And everybody has told you
they haven't seen those women.

I honestly don't understand
why you're so insistent.

And now...

taste our wine.

It seems very light,

but it has a gradation
of 18 degrees.

Honestly, Mr. Mayor...

I've seen strange things.

And, strangely, I believe
that the people from this town...

are afraid.

They feel insecure.

Everyone's whispering.

What is it that you're afraid of?

Come on, you people from the city
are always suspicious.

There's something else.

What about security?

It is being said that there is
some kind of plague.

Why don't you ask
for medical assistance?

It's unbelievable.

People live here
like it's the Middle Ages.

Are you making
an official accusation?

We have doctors
and police officers here.

You have no business
telling us what to do!

I warn you I'll stay here
to solve the mess here,

and whatever I find out,
I'll blow the lid off it.

Afterwards, we'll see.

Stop talking nonsense!

What do you mean?

Sit down, please.

Let's try not to overreact.

Yes, I understand you're worried
about these two friends of yours.

I'll try to help you
in everything that I can.

I'll find out if someone
has heard anything about them.

I assure you nothing serious
has happened here.

Nothing to be alarmed at.

Have some women died?
Yes, they have.

But because they were ill
or had an accident.

But what's important is that their
death certificates are in order.

Don't look for murders or murderers.

Of course, there's always
people who imagine things.

There are stories.

But can we consider that a crime?

They're talking about black magic,
witchcraft, curses,

and my girlfriend
studied those subjects.

I even heard talk about a werewolf,

about vampires.
I don't know what else.

- A lycanthrope.
- What?

Don't be surprised.

I'm not as ignorant as you think.

Lycanthropy is a kind of madness

where a man thinks
he becomes a wolf.

If we accept that,
why not accept, too,

that some people believe
they've seen werewolves.

You can't arrest them for that,
for having an imagination.

No, not for that.

But if someone wants to Kill
someone who says he's a witch,

a werewolf, or a vampire,

it is my duty to get involved.

And I see many
threatening faces in this town

willing to attack,
although I don't know whom.

And are you going to start a process
based only on those stories?

Please.

First I'll start by looking
for Elvira and her friend.

Then we'll deal with the rest.

Then you'll be able to explain
your theories, Mr. Mayor.

We'll meet again.

Elvira,

I know our love has no future...

but I love you.

You're the first woman
who has ever loved me.

You're my only love...

and my salvation.

A glass of wine, please.

Have you seen the funeral?

Another girl.

No one knows her cause of death.

But I know the secret.

Hey, it's not a girl who arrived
recently with a friend, is it?

No. It was not her, but I know
who you're talking about.

Do you know where she is?

I know she's been living in the old house
that belonged to the Jacquier family.

In the valley, on the old road.

But trust me,
don't go anywhere near it.

It's a cursed place. There's a man there
who behaves as Satan himself.

I warned my poor Pierre,
but he didn't listen.

Poor? Why?
What happened to him?

One day he went down to the monastery
to visit the Tomb of the Knight.

He started behaving strangely.

In fact, he didn't
listen to me at all, you know.

I'm sure he's been bewitched.

One day he left
and never came back.

I don't believe in superstitions.

Police, huh?

You're used to dealing
with criminals, bandits, gangsters.

But all of them are humans.

In the valley, everything is a mystery.

There are monsters.

And we're going
to have a full moon soon.

Inspector, don't trust anyone

and be very careful.

Who are you?
Why are you attacking me? Speak!

Everybody hates you.

No one dares stand up to you.

And they let you kill and murder.

You have a plague with you.

A plague?

The young women die,
drained of all their blood.

My wife was expecting a child,

and it's your fault they both died!

Mabille told me.

She said, “Kill him!

Destroy him, he's a warlock.

My poor Pierre disappeared.

He'll kill us all.

Look for him at the monastery.”

I hate you.

You killed my wife and my son!

You're...

the Devil... the Devil!

- Elvira.
- Marcel.

Listen to me, Marcel.

I know just how much
you're suffering

and that what has happened
is very hard to explain.

All I can tell you
is that Genevieve is dead.

Yes, as you heard.

And Elvira will die, too...

unless you take her away at once.

I know you love her.

And you're the only one she trusts.

Your presence here
is very fortunate.

Take her away immediately.
There's no time to waste.

I've talked to many people in town.

They all fear you.
They hate you.

Many young ladies have died
in strange circumstances.

Village superstitions
ignorant people believe.

They keep talking of witchcraft,
curses, vampires,

and of a werewolf who shows up
whenever there's a full moon.

I've also talked to a woman.

She's the one who said
that Elvira was here in your house.

It seems she was your handyman's
girlfriend, a guy named Pierre.

She talked to me about the ruins
of an old monastery

and of a place known
as the Tomb of the Knight.

The Tomb of the Knight?

Naturally, I don't believe
those stupid tales,

but I'm convinced
that behind all this...

there's a criminal imagination.

Don't you have anything to say
about that, Mr. Daninsky?

I can assure you

that despite all that's against you,
I am willing to believe you.

As for Elvira,

I know she had nothing to do
with anything that happened here.

Elvira must leave this place at once.
Nothing else matters.

- I'll persuade her.
- All right.

But let me warn you I'll return
with a few of my men

to solve these mysteries.

You will have to provide
a convincing explanation.

And the town people
will be thoroughly debriefed.

I'll give you some advice.

Be very careful.

The county farmers hate you
and are willing to do anything...

even Kill you.

It wouldn't surprise me
if they came and hanged you.

They've tried that before.

Marcel, go back to civilization.

Take care of Elvira.

You must persuade her.

She won't listen to me.

Listen to me, Elvira.

If you really love me,
leave forever.

I'll need the cross,

and if you stay
I'd have to let you have it

to protect you from Wandesa.

Genevieve is dead

- and Marcel might have the same fate.
- I don't want to leave you.

Wandesa is after blood.

I must destroy her before she turns
more innocent people into vampires.

The horror must cease.

I know where she's hiding.

Leave, I'm begging you.

That will be a test
your love for me must pass.

Tomorrow will be
the Night of Walpurgis.

Wandesa will be stronger than ever.

I can destroy her before that.

Once she's dead,
peace will reign once more.

Her victims won't have died in vain.

Elvira.

The Tomb of the Knight.

It's still too soon.

Tomorrow you'll be turned
into slaves of Satan.

My revenge will
then have been fulfilled.

While you're in my power,
Waldemar won't dare attack me.

Satan will come.

You will belong to Him.

Your blood will conjure Him.

Here's my Lord.

There will be a full moon any minute.

I must accomplish my mission.

Your blood will be His breath...

and He will rule the world at last.
