All language subtitles for The Robot vs the Aztec Mummy 1958.eng

How far can the human mind penetrate the
mysteries of the great beyond?

Who knows.

This picture is based upon an
extraordinary experiment

carried out by doctors Hughes and
Tunie of the University of Los Angeles

There is no doubt as to its authenticity

testimony of people participating
in the experiment

sworn to by a notary public preclude the
possibility of any fraud.

This picture is a combination
of factual data mixed with fiction

- Good evening
- Good evening

Good evening
- Good evening sir.

Dr. Diaz, Dr. Esther what
a pleasure to have you here.

- The pleasure is all ours.
- I hope you're feeling well.

Very well thank you and you?

The same old laborers
always working.

trying to find new ways to
help patients die painlessly.

please don't joke.

But won't you come in my husband is in
there waiting for you.

Good evening gentlemen
I'm most grateful to you

for having taken the trouble to
come to my home this evening.

- It's no trouble doc
- We're delighted who'd complain

and having the opportunity
of visiting with such a

beautiful young lady as a wife flora.

Flatterer

How are you picking?

Fine doctor.

- Please sit down Gentelmen.
- Thank you.

Doctor Dias, Dr. Esther

I've taken the liberty of calling you here

because I think it's time I
reveal something very serious.

Let's hear it then.

it's about the Aztec breastplate
and the bracelet, gentlemen.

How's that?

Why the whole thing
was forgotten long ago.

It's a closed book Doctor.

That's exactly
what I thought too.

But things have
happened lately that...

I think you two
should know about.

My friends be patient
and allow me to tell you a story.

All all you already
know part of the history

there are some things that you ignore.

I think the best thing to do
is to begin at the beginning

You both recall, you not that...

that occasion years ago,

five to be exact, when we held a
convention on psychiatry in this city.

I attended and gave a talk on the
results of my studies related to the...

regression of a patient to a past life
through the use of hypnosis.

my theory was greeted with amazement

and incredulity by the
members of the convention

Among others attending that
day were you dr. Esther

and you dr. Diaz

You both had come with dr. Krupp.

My theory was made the subject of ridicule

and I left the convention bitter and
defeated.

I got to the house feeling
unsure of these ideas.

I'd been squashed,

but I just couldn't accept the
other opinions of my theories.

I was sure they could be
proven.

That night flora offered
to undergo a hypnotic test.

She was fully aware
of the danger of the experiment.

Assisted by her father and by
Pincate, I hypnotized her.

During her past life Flora, had lived among
the great peoples of the Aztec.

She told us such strange
things, amazing things,

Far back in those ancient
years her name had been Sochi.

She was deeply in love with a brave
and highborn warrior called Popoca.

Their love was so strong that it would
not answer to reason,

so they decided to run away

even though it was her sacred duty to
preserve her maidenhood

and be sacrificed to the god Tezcatlipoca,

but they were discovered
by the tribal priests,

As punishment, the warrior was buried alive
and an eternal curse was placed upon him.

As she was adorned with
the bracelet and a breastplate,

which were engraved with hieroglyphics

indicating where the
Aztec treasure was hidden.

Then they cut out her heart,
but as she began to regain consciousness.

In the exact moment I came
to the end of my little experiment,

she struggled and began to shout.

Followed for a terrible
attack of some kind,

and her blood pressure dropped to such an
extent that we were afraid she might die.

But a couple of weeks later we discovered
it dr. Krupp,

a man who had suddenly become a
dangerous criminal in the underworld,

Had been there spying during my experiment.

The experiment had been a
complete success,

but since we realized that
no one would believe us

unless we could come
up with an absolute proof.

We decided to search for
the breastplate in the bracelet.

Flora acted as our guide.

We discovered a hidden passageway
beneath the pyramid of Teotihuacan.

Professor.

I think we're up against a
dead end.

It can't be possible

Tha Aztek wouldn't
build a secret passageway

just to have an end up
for no rhyme or reason.

There must be some way
through that wall.

Professor, it sounds Hollow.

But it's so thick that it's senseless
to try a breakthrough.

Pincate, give me a hand, please.

Flora, come on.

This must be a little room
beneath the pyramid.

Yes, but I know it isn't the temple.

Look what I found. Come here.

What is it?

It looks
like a well.

Well I think it's an airshaft but
undoubtedly it lead us somewhere.

Probably to the temple.

Well then what are
we waiting for?

Come on

After descending
several flights of stairs,

We suddenly encountered the hair-raising
face of the god Tecatlicopa.

We had reached the lower temple

and the Aztec tomb that Flora
had mentioned.

there he came across the skeleton of
what had once been Sochi.

On the chest laid a solid gold breastplate.

But gee, this is horrible
to think I was she.

You know we're the first person's to
break in here.

It's a world that slumbered all
these years and begins to awaken...

Now we found what we wanted so badly.

No Edward. Don't do it.

Now at last i'll be able to demonstrate
this to my colleagues

and prove my theory.

it's simply amazing.

Just a few days after
I got the breast plate,

I asked you all here, including dr. Krupp,
as you'll recall.

Certainly.

i'd say that it was the
greatest experience of my life.

And mine too!

You must also recall that i
said that i'd studied a breast plate

and that i'd tried to decipher the
hieroglyphics and see what they meant.

Since i knew that the message would
tell how to find that hidden treasure.

Yes. But i remember you're telling
me that you also needed the bracelet.

Exactly Doctor.

One object
complimented the other.

Without the bracelet it was simply
impossible to decipher the code.

So i decided to go back for it.

In spite of the Aztec curse
that surrounded it.

He who defiles a tomb of the Aztecs and
finds the sacred plate,

will run the risk of death and his family
as well until the breastplate is replaced.

I depended upon the
help of my father-in-law

and of my good friend dr. Kincaid.

So, once again the three of us got together
and returned to the tumb.

When we reached there and I
was just about to pick up the bracelet.

My father-in-law stumbled on something
and calls my attention to it.

Look here!

Look there! Doesn't that great belong to
Popoka?

Yes, according to the legend it does.

In that case where is he now?

We heard a strange shuffling noise that
was coming in our direction.

and then out of the darkness

appeared a ghastly
and terrifying Popoca.

The Aztec warrior had come back to life.

Come back to life to retrieve the objects
that had been left in his care,

for eternity.

Let's put out the lights I have an idea.
I don't think he can stand it.

Turn them on!

Shine him in his face.

Turn them off again.

Lights again!

You better run out.
I'll follow you.

To be perfectly frank, I
thought my time had come.

If it hadn't been for my friends
I'd have been torn to pieces.

It's incredible.

A mummy comes back to life after
hundreds of years in a Sepulchre.

Dr. Diaz,

you have my word of honor that the
story I have been telling is the truth.

Popoca as I told you was punished
because he loved Young Sochi.

His curse was to guard the priceless
bracelet as well as the golden breastplate.

To do so, for all eternity.

Under this terrible curse, his poor soul
would never find repose.

Continue Edward

Well the bet on many occasions tried to
steal these objects that I had found.

time passed rapidly.

I thought the whole
business had been forgotten.

But I found that the
Aztec curse still follows us.

One night, the Mummy came to this house to
get his treasure pieces,

and he kidnapped Flora.

he tied her to the sacrificial stone

where the skeleton of
Sochi had lain for centures

and placed the bracelet and a
breastplate on her.

Obviously the Mummy intended
to make history repeat itself.

He was going to cut out Flora's heart
and offer it to the God Tezcatlipoca.

The three of us rushed
to the pyramid to try to rescue Flora

and we stood transfixed for a moment
at the scene we saw.

The mummy was standing
next to the stone

He was holding a knife
high in his right hand.

I jumped to the floor and luckily
was able to hit the brain with a bullet.

Could lunged at me and its
enormous hands got hold of my throat.

Life was leaving me rapidly

when Flora's father suddenly
held a cross up in front of its face.

With this he was able to hold a
mummy at bay while we freed Flora.

In a frenzy we untied her and got her
away from the stone.

Then the professor ordered
us to get her out of the pyramid.

His tone was so adamant
and I was so concerned

for Flora's safety that
we obeyed him blindly.

So, when we got out I realized
that he hadn't followed us

and I decided to go back for it.

in that very instant a tremendous
explosion shook the pyramid.

The professor had given up
his life in order to save ours.

Since the mummy had stayed
under tons of boulders

and the bat had been sent to prison,

Of course we thought the whole
business had come to an end.

But it didn't happen that way.

The bat who is really
the infamous doctor Krupp.

Krupp?

He broke out of jail.

In his mad determination
to get my treasure,

he kidnapped my daughter, and Flora
and then hypnotized her.

Do tell us the rest my friend.
Then what happened?

In this state,

she took the doctor to the Aztec tomb.

He immediately located the mummy,
taking the breastplate and the bracelet.

Then Krupp called me on
the phone not too much later.

I was ordered to go there and
decipher the hieroglyphics,

to enable the demon to locate the treasure.

And you agreed?

Can't you see that I had to obey?

To save my wife would been kidnapped
by the doctor, and my little girl.

but there's another thing
that you should know.

It'll surprise you to
hear that crop one said

that he needed that Aztec
treasure to work on an experiment.

He also said that the experiment of course
was costly.

now you know how I was forced to do it.

I went to Krupps laboratory and
began to decipher the hieroglyphics.

In the hands of those criminals our lives
were in grave danger.

our only hope was that the mummy, guided by
unknown forces,

would be able to find
doctor Krupps hideout,

just the way he'd found my house
on a previous occasion.

I dragged the thing out
as much as possible,

but the moment arrived
when I could stall no longer.

- I finished it.
- That's fine!

I hope you'll keep your promise
now and set us all free doctor.

Hein? Oh yes!

You know
what to do now don't you Bruno?

Just what are you going to do? Murder us?

What do you think?

You unscrupulous Pig!

No! Dr. help me!
Can't you hear!

No! Help me!
No!

Please help me!
Please!

When I realized who the
criminals were and settled accounts with,

then when he saw the doctor tried to
escape he picked him up like a rag doll

and threw him into a pit full of
Rattlers

Afterwards with the breastplate
in the bracelet in his hands,

he slowly shuttled away into the darkness

and soon was lost from sight.

I'll never forget the strong
affection I had the Flora's father.

Such a kind man's intelligent
advice brought about our salvation.

And the mummy?
went back to the pyramid?

No. The explosion destroyed his temple he
had no reason to go there.

In that case can't you tell us where he is?

Permit me to continue.

All these tragic
happenings couldn't go unattended.

So I went to the police and
they heard the whole story.

When I returned to Krupps hideout

in company by the chief of
police and a couple of his men.

You can imagine our surprise when we
discovered the place was completely empty.

the laboratory had been
dismantled,

and the bodies of the criminals that the
mummy had killed had also disappeared.

Continuing our search
we hurried to the snake pit.

I was awestruck when I realized that the
body of dr. Krupp was no longer down there.

Then to our horror we discovered that there

was a small door in
the back wall of the pit,

through which the doctor
could have escaped.

Obviously the doctor had escaped,

and strangely I don't
think he'd been bitten.

The man's running loose?

So that would mean that the doctor
kept trying to come by those articles.

so that he could locate
the treasure.

You're right my friend he did just that.

He began to bother us
a couple of weeks later.

It happened quite suddenly
you see.

One dark night...

This is the house.

Do you really think
this plan of yours is gonna work doc?

You'll see.
Now I want you to be quiet.

Keep still and don't
make the slightest noise

Flora.

It is my wish that you come to my side.

Flora, I command you to come to me.

Flora, I command you to come to me.

Flora, are you listening?
Come here to me.

Flora, do not try to fight it
and come here.

Flora, do not try to fight it - come here

Flora, are you listening?
I command you to come to me.

Flora, you are to do as I command.
Come here!

You can hear the ways that are being
sent out by that mummy, can you not?

I know well that you're able
to lead us to him.

Yes, I can.

Then tell us where is Popoca?

In the ancient cemetery.

Come with me!

What are you doing here?
Answer me!

What are you doing here?

Come now Flora.

Come on. We must hurry!

Is the place?

Yes.

No, devil! You stinking devil!

I'd like to drop your
rotten flesh to pieces.

it'll certainly be great to do so,

but you know it's not possible now.

We're going to make my experiment,

so we must wait.

Wait...
Wait?

When I got so much hate eating
down deep inside of my guts.

You ain't got no idea
what it is to live like this!

Hiding myself from everyone and
everything!

Just because of that stinkin monster!

Calm down now.

I promise you that he'll be destroyed!

But give me time, just a little time.

it won't be too long before
you can have your revenge.

Let me get the breastplate first,
and the bracelet.

So near to them and yet so
far because I can't touch them.

It's too dangerous to do it.

He wake up in an instant,

and destroy us.

But I'll get them back!
I swear it!

no matter how long it takes me.

You devilish mummy!

Come on, we better go now!

We'll be needing a lot of time,
if the plan I have is going to work out.

Anything you say.

Come Flora.

Now listen to me well, Flora.

You'll go up to your room,
than you'll go to sleep.

And when you awaken,
you act quite normally,

and you won't recall a thing.
You understand?

You won't recall a thing.

Now walk.

Go on.
Go on.

Well good morning!

good morning, sweetheart.
You must have been very tired.

we were waiting down here to have
breakfast with you.

We could both eat a horse!

Any eggs anyways?

Nothing for me Maria, I have
a terrible headache, dear.

What's that you've got on your
gown?

It's all dirty.
That's funny...

You've been down in the cellar?

No, sweetheart.
I don't know.

but look at your slippers.
They're all muddy.

How come on what have you been up to?

Nothing.

It's funny. These are new slippers.
I just bought them.

and now they're dirty.

I think you went out last night.

No.

After I took my bath I
went to bed because I was tired.

Yes, but you got up later on, didn't you?

- I did? No!
- Yes

Because I've woke up a couple of times
and you were not in bed.

No you're mistaken, darling.

I assure you I didn't leave my
bed for a second.

You went out last night. Honest mom.

Come on, let's forget the
whole thing for now, alright?

Remember she has a great imagination.

Tell me, have your headache passed?

No.

I'm going to lie down for a while.
Excuse me please.

You children go out
and have your breakfast.

Yes, Daddy.

Come on Pincate.
I want to talk to you.

Oh, boy.
What a liar you are!

You shut your big mouth!
You're the liar!

Pincate,
I'm very worried.

This attitude that we've
observed in Flora is not normal.

What's more I'm afraid that the
bat has something to do with this.

then you really think that child
was telling the truth about it?

And that her mother got up and
went out?

Yes.
It's quite probable.

But Flora insisted she didn't leave her
bed for a second.

Because she can't recall anything.

When she got up last night,
she was sleeping.

I don't understand it.

It seems impossible.

I'll tell you what I think.

She was hypnotized and could be under post
hypnotic suggestion.

So it seems to me that the bat
controls her from a distance.

It's logical.

This strange attitude in Flora

indicated that unscrupulous villain Krupp
made her leave the house during the night.

But where did they go to?

Can't you guess what he's trying to do?

You certainly know what
he's after. The breastplate.

And besides that the
bracelet.

Precisely Pinacate.

then you think that she was made to go
along with Krupp

and he wanted her to
guide him to find the mummy.

Exactly, and you and I
must go there.

I'm going to find out if that
scoundrel stole those objects.

But that'll be difficult.

You can investigate without any clues.

Yes.

Listen to me a second.

Suppose we took her slippers to the
laboratory to have that mud analyzed.

That could help us, don't you think?

Yes! Yes, that might just be the solution.

we'll take them but I don't
think she should find out.

We'd better do it all in secret.
Come on.

Yes, now I'm quite sure.

It's embedded in the dirt.

Of course it's a small quantity, doctor,
but your suspicions are correct,

they're pieces of marble.

you're sure
it's marble?

Can you identify its source?
Is it a special kind?

No, it isn't but it's a
fine quality.

it might be a Carrara
marble I can say that.

It's used in the construction of
mausoleums as far as I know.

Thank you

This is the last cemetery
we've seen all the others.

We don't find anything here,

we'd better forget about it.

- Hello there!
- Good evening.

Tell me are you
the watchman here?

Yes sir.
Anything I can do for ya?

Oh, yes.
We'd like to ask you a few questions.

We'd like to know if you've
seen anything strange

the last few weeks or more
recently anything very suspicious,

in or around the cemetery pertaining to
one of the graves.

Are you from the police?

Yes that's right my friend and
we're after a very dangerous criminal.

Whom we suspect has been hiding in one
of the cemeteries around the city.

Well the fact is something pretty doggone
curious did happen.

it's two nights ago.

I was surprised to run into a young
woman here, wearing a kind of white robe.

She seemed to be asleep and two men into
the grounds with her,

and when I asked him who they were,

one of the guys slugged me and
they left me out cold here on the ground.

Then we'll be taking a look around
the grounds.

You do anything you want.
Anything you want.

You see, I was right.
At last were on the trail.

Now, the tough part is yet to come,

because we've got to walk
around and we find the mummy.

Look, we'd better separate now.

Go that way Pinacate.
I'll go over there.

Go on!

Edward.
Edward, c'mere!

What happened?

look

Come on!

look!
The breastplate and the bracelet!

They didn't take it.

all this I've just told you,
occurred almost five years ago.

We visited the Crypt from time to
time to take a look at a mummy

with its breastplate in its bracelet too.

And the bat? Is he still around?

You know? He disappeared from sight.

Then just a couple of days ago, we've
read an article that is very interesting.

We were profoundly
surprised by it.

According to the article,
a couple of nights before

a cadaver had been
robbed from the amphitheater.

And the individual who did it
was the bat, of course!

Yes.

In the beginning we had some doubts.

This man who had been attacked, couldn't
offer us the description of his assailants.

But, later on our
suspicions were confirmed.

Yesterday there was a burglary in
the radiology Institute.

The thieves took a
machine that uses radium.

They also stole a brain
out of a laboratory.

This time the police were able to identify
that crooks as the bat and all his band.

As a matter of fact, they were almost
captured.

Are there any good clues doctor?

Lead is the only metal capable of
resisting radiation.

Lead material in this city is
handled by many wholesalers.

After visiting the first three or four...

Good morning, sir.

Good morning.
what can I do for you gentlemen?

We're sorry to be a bother to
you but is it just possible that lately...

you set out a large shipment of lead.
Could you give me that information?

In the last two days?

Or it could be a week,
more or less.

Let me check.

We keep a record of our
shipments in this book

Yes, here it is.

Exactly five days ago we made
delivery of 20 plates of lead shielding

four inches and width,

to number
22 shade Street.

- Many thanks!
- You're welcome.

After investigating for days at last we
got the address.

I think that bat had made his
hideout there or his laboratory.

Well, I don't see why
this thieving dr. Krupp

would go to the effort of stealing radium,

a complete human brain and
also the body of some man.

Do you recall that the bat once told flora
that he was working on a new experiment?

I think that is the
explanation.

it's possible,

but there's no doubt that dr. Krupp

and his criminals are
planning to cause trouble.

Certainly, that's also my opinion.

Now I'll tell you why I called
you here tonight gentlemen,

because you both are scientists

and you'll be able to combat the situation.

Just in case we end up being
murdered.

You need to say you two
are thinking of going there

without taking the police along?

Yes, because you see we're still
not sure that that's the bats laboratory,

and the police still don't have much faith
in us because of what happened before.

Flora...

in case we're not back here at the house by
3:00 in the morning,

I'm leaving it up to you to
call the police.

Edward!

Please you two...

Doctor Almada.

What a pleasant surprise.

Bruno.

A souvenir of the mummy.

the boss is gonna be very happy to
say hello to you too again.

Come along.

Bat!

Look what I found out in front.

Dr. Almada and his shadow.

This is a pleasant surprise gentlemen.

After such a long time I come
face to face with such good friends.

Exactly where did you find them?

out in the shop there.
Looking around.

I offer you my congratulations because
you are magnificent detectives.

- Did anyone else come with them?
- Nobody else.

I saw when they drew
up in the automobile, alone.

Bruno, aren't you going
to attend our guests?

The way they deserve.

Go fetch chairs for the gentlemen.

Sure. Right the way.

Tell me, how's your beautiful
and charming wife dr. Almada?

I learned about your marriage and I admit
it's a bit late to say it,

but receive my congratulations.

And Pinacate.

How are you these days?
Are you still the champion of rights?

There's no doubt about
it, and I'm glad.

Come over here.

Who would have thought that you'd be
here at the moment to witness this,

because you're about to see something
that will astonish you. Truly unbelievable.

When you feast your eyes on this,

I don't doubt that
you'll be amazed, doctor,

and you'll be the first
to congratulate me.

Frankly, I'm happy that you
came here to visit us dr. Almada.

You're a man who is
basically an intellectual

and that's why you will
be able to understand.

The richness of my invention!

I think you remember that time we met.

Since then I work day and night,
without resting for a minute.

And during all that hectic time,

I explored powers that no one else knows.

All those great mysteries
the very basis of creation.

Then, that means that you defy all
the limits that were put down by God.

There are certain secrets that we
could explore and discover rapidly,

and that's why it's such a shame
that fear impeads us so.

Dr. Almada...

You're completely
mad and ignorant also.?

Don't you respect my search at all?

Don't you want to learn to
know why your body functions?

I do, and at last caught the cause.

Take a look at this heart.
That's beating.

It lives!

It lives and pulses because I gave it life!

and if I can give life
to an inert material,

why can't I give it to the bodies
that are damned to death?

We can!

No one can possibly
imagine how I've worked.

When I dug in the mud with
his hands and entered tombs

I tortured many animals with pleasure,

to find the answers.
Answer to man's existence.

you're insane do you know?

I decided to
create a man.

A breathing body a real man!

And I have made that dream come true!

There you have the greatest creation of
man's intelligence.

A human robot, doctor!

Tonight I'm going to find out.

Tonight I'm going to put it
to the supreme test.

I'll activate the creature.

But this is monstrous doctor.

If it lives, then my triumph
will be complete dr. Almada,

because I'll get the
treasure and I'll be rich.

This thing I created has enormous
power,

and you'll watch it!

now that.

Time for the
robot!

Doctor watch this!

Two-thirty already.

Don't you think it
would be better to call the police now?

I don't know what to do!

No. Let's all wait till 3:00 a.m.
and respect the doctors wish.

Suppose they're in danger.

Ah! This is great doctor!
The greatest invention!

You can see it standing there.

A marvelous machine a tribute to the
great intelligence of man.

A human robot!

With his shining creature, no human
being on this earth can oppose me!

Do you understand?

do you know what could have
happened to you right now?

Had I not diminish the electric force,
the current that makes you move,

and that is contained in this apparatus?

With the slightest twist of this dial

you too would have been
converted into atomic dust instantaneously.

Because the robot, utilizes radium,

it has sufficient power to
disintegrate anything in the world.

Right, it beats the mummy!

Bruno, prepare the special place.
The lead will shield my truck.

Hurry time is flying!

Tonight my robot has to make a
visit, you know. In certain Cemetery.

What time? Ten Minutes to three.

I told you. There's no time to lose Bruno.

Hurry, Get going!

I want the police. It's urgent!

Headquarters, I want to talk
to the Chief of Police.

I want you to stop and think about this.

A new kind of world.
An army of robots obeying me.

The human species...

Sheeps obeying my orders. A new theory
that manners are dared imagine.

I'll make some more.

Maybe a thousand.

Now that I know how, the rest is easy.

But for that I need money.

That treasure of the Aztecs!

That's why tonight the
mummy will give me what I want!

Boss, it's all set.

Fine.

You two stay here and guard
our distinguished friends.

They mustn't get away.

They're an extremely
important cog in my plan.

I'm sorry that I can't take you along,
but you'd only get underfoot.

But I'll return gentlemen, to inform
you that I could destroy the mummy.

and with the gold breastplate
and bracelet in my hands.

You begin once more to translate the
hieroglyphics.

This time you're helpless, because
no one knows you're here, dr. Almada.

Let's hurry I'm afraid for their lives.

Get up. Let's go!

Edward!

What happened here?

Chief you can arrest those
two men in the other room.

Come on!

Doctor the bat has gone to the
tomb where the money is.

Let's hurry.
There's no time to lose.

What's that?

Hurry Bruno! Take a breastplate and
bracelet out of him!

Yes.

At last you, devil.
At last I'm gonna have my revenge!

Popoca, in memory of the great love that
once existed between us.

Stop all this death and destruction.

Take these objects that are yours to guard,

and go back to the grave of our
ancestors,

where we should never have
interrupted your eternal sleep.
