Synopsis

Victorian London. While the engagement of Dr Henry Jekyll and Miss Fanny Osbourne is being celebrated, a child is brutally murdered and raped in the backstreets. Jekyll's mother welcomes the guests to a celebration at their house. Things take a violent turn, however, when Henry pours some chemicals into his bath and emerges as Mr Hyde, a libidinous, murderous, monster. As the evening proceeds, Henry unleashes a violent attack on his guests.
