Dr Jekyll is a rich doctor of great generosity who lives on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Mr Hyde is a sadistic murderer with a reputation that strikes fear in to the hearts of people throughout New York. Peter Utterson, Dr Jekyll's lawyer and friend, investigates the mystery of who Mr Hyde is and why he is the sole beneficiary of Jekyll's will.
The devastating answer is that Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde are the same person and the urgent problem is how to kill the beast without destroying the man."
What does everyone think of this?

I'm simply watching for the curiosity factor of how to make something we've all seen 50 thousand times over interesting this time around. A creature feature is nice, but again, I've seen this so much the curiosity factor of how to make it exciting is appealing to me on this otherwise bland entry.

No creature in it, Hyde is the beast.

Right, it's still a creature feature due to the fact that the transformation appears in the film. He's going to turn into one, therefore it's a creature feature.

Where does it say he turns into a creature? He will turn into Hyde...I am confused?

Well, every version of the story, except for Lon Chaney's version in the 20s, has Hyde as a creature, so I'll say he is until I find out otherwise.

Creature is a harsh term... might I suggest deformed, snarling, rabies-infected lunatic? Euphemisms are our friends.  |

Maskedman said it way better.
Human not creature, no matter what.

Deformed, snarling lunatic I'll agree to, the rest makes no sense. When was it ever announced that the serum was ever created through rabies? I surely don't remember them ever saying that.

Yeah not rabies, but maybe rabies like  |

Yeah, you can act like it, but it's definitely not created through it.

No I don't think they ever mentioned him having rabies at all.
