Despite being 104 years old, he has the appearance of a man in his mid-30s. However, this incredible feat comes at a terrible cost, for every 10 years, Bonnet must undergo a surgery which requires the parathyroid gland of a living victim. When it becomes clear that his old friend and collaborator Professor Ludwig Weiss is no longer capable of conducting the surgery as he had previously, Bonnet kidnaps his old flame Janine Dubois in an attempt to coerce her new love interest Dr. Pierre Gerrard into taking up the task. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA joint venture between Paramount Pictures and Britain’s legendary Hammer Film Productions, who had just scored massive international hits with The Curse of Frankenstein (1957) and Dracula (1958), 1959’s THE MAN WHO COULD CHEAT DEATH saw director Terence Fisher return to the helm alongside writer Jimmy Sangster.
