The Faceless Monster (1965)
One of the classics of the "golden age" of Italian horror films, starring the queen of Euro-horror, Barbara Steele, in a dual role. Obsessed scientist Dr. Stephen Arrowsmith, finds his wife is cheating on him with the servant. He brutally tortures and kills them, keeping their hearts in a secret place (who says mad scientists aren't sentimental!). When he finds that his wife's wealth (she's the one who had all the money in the family) has been left to her mentally ill sister Jenny, he marries her and begins a plan to get everything for himself. But, in the best tradition of gothic horror, strange things begin to happen until nightmare revenge reaches from beyond the grave in this shadow-haunted chiller, highlighted by a score from the great Ennio Morricone!

When the scientist won't allow her to become the first human test subject for his discovery, Marnie kills him and uses it to become beautiful.
