Frozen Alive (also known as Der Fall X 701) is a 1964 British-German international co-production science-fiction film produced by Artur Brauner and Ronald Rieti, and directed by Bernard Knowles. It stars Mark Stevens, Marianne Koch, and Wolfgang Lukschy.[1] The film was released in the US in 1966 on a double bill with Destination Inner Space. The plot concerns scientists Dr. Frank Overton and Dr. Helen Wieland, who are experimenting in Berlin with "deep-freezing" chimpanzees (the word cryogenics is only used once in the film) and thawing them unhurt. Overton decides to use himself as a human test subject, but he is wrongly accused of murdering his philandering wife, and the police believe that he is attempting to avoid arrest.
