A Film with a salacious Title- what could go wrong?
Like other Films of its ilk, is it a memorable Film?
Naturally, it begins with 2 guys beating the crap out of each other.
Wait- what?!?
We learn via Jekyll's Narration that he is experimenting with his Grandfather's Formula.
It brings out rage.
It brings out rage.
Oh, and he's kidnapped a Woman who he wants to marry.
Joy.
His House is full of people under his control.
Joy.
A former Doctor is now his mindless servant (and looks like Blackenstein).
His Sister had a lobotomy 20 years ago and just makes weird faces.

If you like this guy narrating and abusing these people, you're in luck.
Oh, and more fighting. Lots more fighting.
Seriously, the Film has 4 prolonged bits with people punching, kicking and screaming.
Joy.
Jekyll has invited the Father of the woman he kidnapped to his House, telling him that she was dead.
He wanted his help to perfect his formula.
Unfortunately, he's blisteringly insane.
As such, after even more fighting, he ends up with a bunch of dead folks- including the Dad- in his basement.
At least things finally pick up...right before its end.
The End.
A Film that is really strange...but that's about the nicest thing I can say.
The Film is so full of random people fighting- it's weird. A good 40% of the Film is just unnamed people punching each other.
The titular Dr. Jekyll is full of himself. He does more narration in this Film that David Attenborough has done in his entire life.
Leave one thought unspoken- please!
The whole Film feels like a good chunk of a Film...but they just filled it with cruelty, fighting and monologues.
The Director made this in 1979 after making two *ahem* Adult Films...so he never got the chance to prove what he could do.
Oh well. Now let me enjoy my new wall art in peace...
A Film that feels like 60% of an interesting Film. Sadly, this is the whole Film, so...
