English Summary:
Dr. Jekyll and Ms. Hyde is a 1995 British-Canadian-American comedy film starring Tim Daly, Sean Young and Lysette Anthony. The film is based on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic horror novel Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The story takes place in modern times and concerns a bumbling chemist who tampers with his great-grandfather's formula, accidentally transforming himself into a beautiful businesswoman who is hellbent on taking over his life.
Dr. Richard Jacks (Tim Daly) is a perfumer working at a major fragrance company. His projects have failed and the chief executive, Mrs. Unterveldt (Polly Bergen), is thinking of replacing him with a woman. After his great-grandfather dies, Richard attends the will reading. He receives nothing but notes from scientific experiments and discovers that his ancestor was Dr. Henry Jekyll. He then decides to add more estrogen to a mixture that Jekyll was working on in the hope that it will prove less dangerous.
Hungarian Summary:
A fiatal tudós, Richard Jacks egy hagyatéki tárgyaláson mindössze néhány ősrégi jegyzetet örököl dúsgazdag ük-ükapjától. Az értéktelen jegyzeteket lapozgatva azonban rádöbben, hogy őse nem más, mint az a bizonyos Dr. Jekyll, aki megalkotta Hyde-ot, a szörnyeteget. Richard azonnal beleveti magát a kísérletekbe, s némi módosítással megalkotja Helen Hyde-ot, a bombanőt, aki tökéletes alakjával teremtője helyére pályázik. Richard hamarosan döbbenten tapasztalja, hogy Helen lassan átveszi fölötte az irányítást, és ha nem tesz valamit, személyisége örökre eltűnik.
