Jekyll (2005) Synopsis & Summary

Synopsis

Jonathan Silverman, Matt Keeslar, and Desmond Askew star in this modernized take on Robert Louis Stevenson's terrifying tale about a brilliant doctor haunted by his own murderous alter ego. Dr. Henry Jekyll was researching a cure for cancer when he created a computer generated avatar of his alter ego and downloaded it directly into his brain. Now, before Dr. Jekyll knows what's happening, his life has been completely taken over by a psychotic, hedonistic, violent party animal known only as Mr. Hyde. But by the time Dr. Jekyll's faithful girlfriend attempts to break through to her bi-polar boyfriend, it may already be too late. As the bodies begin to pile up and Mr. Hyde's unpredictable temper grows increasingly explosive, it's up to Dr. Jekyll to regain control of his life or risk losing everything he ever cared about. - Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
