In this chilling twist on the classic Jekyll and Hyde story, psychologist Charles Marlowe (Christopher Lee) invents a drug which releases his patients' inhibitions - but tests on himself result in the cruel, immoral Edward Blake, who wreaks crime and murder upon the city. Marlowe´s lawyer, Utterson (Peter Cushing), believes Blake is blackmailing the good doctor but soon uncovers the horrifying truth. (Verleiher-Text)

Eine – keine Ahnung wievielte – Version/Variation der Geschichte von Dr. Jekyll und Mr. Hyde. Diesmal spielt die Hauptrolle der dämonische Christopher Lee (wenn Sie diese Person anlächelt, hätten Sie schon längst weg sein sollen). Die Londoner Stimmung ist hässlich und düster. Der Film ist aber trotzdem nicht besonders interessant. Peter Cushing hat in der Nebenrolle nichts Besonderes gezeigt. Es war einfach irgendwie gewöhnlich.

Studio Amicus occasionally came up with something interesting, but the more films you see from them, the more you'll feel that it's truly just a studio that tried to compete with the production company Hammer and generally didn't achieve the same quality as its more famous counterpart. The film I, Monster is proof of that. Christopher Lee tries his best, but the story simply isn't strong enough or different enough from the classic Jekyll concept.
