DR. BLACK AND MR. HYDE 1976 (VCI)

Super Seventies Shocker!!

Bernie Casey is Dr. Pride, a scientist who is working on a cure for liver disease. He creates a drug and finds he must take it himself and try and prove it works.

Unfortunately the serum turns him into a "white" killer who stalks pimps and other scum of Watts. The make-up effects are by Stan Winston and aren't bad. Casey does a very good job of projecting himself as an insane killer who shrieks loudly when pissed off.

The rest of the cast is rounded out by Rosaland Cash, Marie O'Henry and Milt Kogan. I found this to be one of the best of the many "blaxploitation" films I have seen.
