Creepy Sci-Fi Horror
One of the creepiest older sci-fi horror films ever made. Fredric March's performance as Jekyll/Hyde was superb. This is one of those films where most of the horror is subtle - the idea of this looking hideous man-creature Mr. Hyde on the loose.
The story is, in it's way, similar to 'The Invisible Man' and 'Frankenstein' because we have a scientist that is considered to be insane for creating monsters yet their intentions started out good.
Dr. Jekyll's beliefs in the good man vs the evil man lead him to experiment with the concept. By doing so, he created the strong, primitive Mr. Hyde. Dr. Jekyll represents the brain and the good side of man while Mr. Hyde represents the brawn and the evil.
I love these older horror films - they are still some of the best, most creative movies ever made.
10/10
