In the shadowy streets of Victorian London, Dr. Henry Jekyll, a respected scientist and physician, struggles with a dark secret: the belief that within every human being coexist two opposing natures. Desperate to unleash his wilder, darker side, Jekyll creates a potion that allows him to transform into Edward Hyde, a ruthless and unscrupulous being.
As Hyde commits horrific crimes, Jekyll becomes trapped in an internal battle between his conscience and the monster he has unleashed. The duality of his being threatens to destroy him, and the line between the two characters begins to blur. Can Jekyll control his creation, or will Hyde prevail forever?
