CLIMAX MYSTERY THEATER: DR. JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE 1955 (MILL CREEK)

This is a classic Television presentation of the Robert Louis Stevenson novel.

William Lundigan is your host for the show and I did get a kick out of the vintage car commercials during the broadcast.

While this show offers nothing new from the other tellings of the story, Michael Rennie does a fine job as Dr. Jekyll and the ugly and evil Mr. Hyde, his alter ego.

Allan Reisner directed this episode and it comes off very well with a great supporting cast which includes John Hoyt, Cedric Hardwick, Mary Sinclair, and Barbara Morrison.

This was a very nice surprise to find it included on a DVD set, and if you get the chance to see it please do so. I think any horror fan will enjoy it.
