Movie Description Spencer Tracy stars as Dr. Jekyll in Robert Louis Stevenson's classic thriller. Jekyll, a scientist with dreams of transforming the world, develops and drinks a potion that separates the good and evil aspects of man. But his experiment goes awry, and he metamorphoses into the twisted and sadistic Mr. Hyde, a creature possessed of only the basest human qualities. Hyde wanders the darkest streets of foggy London, turning the city into a nightmare as he preys on those he encounters.

Notes Additional montage sequences displaying Hyde's mind-set were filmed and edited, including a rape scene and phallic imagery, but these elements were dropped from the final print to avoid conflict with the Hays Office.
