Dr. Jekyll (Paolo Villaggio) is the director of the powerful multinational food company PANTAC. He’s unleashed so many harmful products on the world, but when he drinks the serum of good, he becomes the much nicer Mr. Hyde.

Directed by noted Italian comedy director Steno, who wrote the script with Leonardo Benvenuti, Piero De Bernardi, Giovanni Manganelli, Franco Castellano and Giuseppe Moccia, this finds the doctor telling his servant Pretorius (Gordon Mitchell) that he secretly wants to be good. Well, it just so turns out that the real Dr. Jekyll lives in the basement and can turn him into a good version of himself, the one that his secretary Barbara (Edwige Fenech) falls for.

The commedia sexy all’italiana movies seem strange and maybe not funny to American audiences, but you know, Edwige Fenech is in it and isn’t that good enough? It’s good enough.

As for the film, well, it never really gets going past that major twist of having Hyde become good.
