From Wikiquote

The Man with Nine Lives is a 1940 film about a medical researcher who visits the deserted home of a pioneer in cryogenic science who disappeared 10 years earlier and finds him frozen in ice but still alive.

Directed by Nick Grinde. Written by Harold Shumate.
He kills in the name of science...Tombs of ice for the living...Chambers of horror for the dead!  (taglines)

Dr. Leon Kravaal

[edit]
  • It's yesterday afternoon to me, but to you it's ten years ago!
  • No other doctor has ever been able to grasp the basic principles of what I am doing. I've explained it to the highest authorities in medicine, and they scoffed at it, calling me insane! I must furnish them a living proof!

Dr. Tim Mason

[edit]
  • Metabolism at this time is practically nil!
  • There's no use kidding ourselves - we're in a spot.

Dialogue

[edit]
Dr. Tim Mason: [after Kravaal has shot Adams in the back] He's dead!
Dist. Atty. John Hawthorne: Murdered!
Dr. Leon Kravaal: [bitterly] You call everything murder, don't you?

Dist. Atty. John Hawthorne: There must be some way out of this!
Dr. Henry Bassett: What, for instance? We're locked in, no one knows we're here, and we have a madman for a jailer!
