A high-energy, comedic Jekyll-and-Hyde romp about a lovable professor's transformation, driven by slapstick humor and romantic aspiration.

When beautiful Carla Purty joins the university faculty, genetic professor Dr. Sherman Klump grows desperate to whittle his 400-pound frame down to size and win her heart. So, with one swig of his experimental fat-reducing serum, Sherman becomes 'Buddy Love', a fast-talking, pumped-up, plumped down Don Juan.
