Le Docteur Savaard invente un cœur artificiel capable de redonner la vie aux cadavres. Afin d'essayer sa machine, il tue un étudiant qui s'est porté volontaire. Son assistante, Betty Crawford, avertit la police. Refusant de croire que le docteur peut faire revivre l'étudiant, les policiers arrêtent Savaard. Accusé du meurtre, il est condamné à être pendu. Lang, son fidèle assistant, réclame le corps à la prison et il ressuscite le docteur en utilisant le cœur artificiel. Brûlant de se venger, Savaard décide de tuer tous ceux qui l'ont condamné à mort...
