Dr Simon Helder, sentenced to an insane asylum for crimes against humanity, recognises its director as the brilliant Baron Frankenstein, the man whose work he had been trying to emulate before his imprisonment. Frankenstein utilises Helder's medical knowledge for a project he has been working on for some time. He is assembling a man from vital organs extracted from various inmates in the asylum. And the Baron will resort to murder to acquire the perfect specimens for his most ambitious project ever.

To avoid being hanged because of his too risky experiments, Dr. Frankenstein has taken refuge, under a false name, in an asylum. But even there, he does not stop his obsessive research for the creation of an artificial man, helped by a young student in good faith. A rather boring English production from the seventies with once again the indestructible Peter Cushing as the protagonist. Fisher had not yet understood that the era of "classic monsters" and gothic settings in the horror genre had ended long ago!
