I, Monster
Directed by Stephen Weeks
Produced by Amicus Productions, British Lion Film Corporation
A Gothic psychological horror that uses the Jekyll-and-Hyde premise to explore the duality of human nature and the dangers of unchecked scientific ambition in Victorian England.
Christopher Lee stars in this Amicus production of “Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde” where the names have been changed to Dr. Marlowe and Mr. Blake. Lee as Dr. Marlowe experiments with intravenous drugs that are suppose to release inner inhibitions. So comes forth Mr. Blake (also Lee) who gets more monstrous with each transformation. Peter Cushing plays his friend and colleague, Dr. Utterson.
