⭐ Featured Review

Underrated version of the classic story.
by rob.hendrikx2000-06-15
9/10

"In my opinion this is an excellent remake of the classic story. Kirk Douglas in the role of Dr. Henry Jekyll and his evil counterpart Mr. Edward Hyde, is as good as Fredric March was in the 1931 film, and better than Spencer Tracy in the 1941 version. And Susan George is better for the part of two bit hooker than both Miriam Hopkins (1931) and Ingrid Bergman (1941). Only blemish is the singing, which does not contribute to the atmosphere but almost destroys the tension and excitement. Overall though a very good enjoyable film...."
