Condemned to Live is a 1935 vampire-horror film. One of the unusual traits of the film is that it presents a sympathetic rendering of the vampire myth. The story takes place in a European village where mysterious murders are taking place. The townspeople gather at the home of a local doctor named Professor Kristan. He counsels the villagers and gives them advice. A giant bat is suspected of the murders. Kristan turns out to be the murderer. He becomes overcome by seizures that result in a trancelike state. He has no memory of his deeds when the trance ends. Kristan finds out that his mother had been bitten by a vampire bat while she was pregnant with him.
