Dr Leeder (Jack Buddliner) is engaged to Cynthia (Jennifer Brooks), but
he actually much rather screws his nurse Debbie (Rene Bond) anyways, so
... Anyways, one day Leeder finds the diary of Dr Jekyll in a curio
shop, and when the owner (Norman Fields) refuses to sell it, Leeder
returns after hours and kills the man as if possessed, only to get his
hands on the book. The book contains a formula that turns manly Doc Leeder
into Miss Hide (Jane Tsentas), a man-murdering seductress. Curiously,
Debbie doesn't seem to be all that bothered by Leeder's sex change, while
Cynthia, without knowing what's going on, breaks off the engagement. A
detective (Jude Farese) eventually links Leeder to the murder of the shop
owner and has his house watched 24/7, but when he searches the house from
top to bottom, he fails to find Leeder, only Miss Hide, and of course he
doesn't make the link. Miss Hide almost manages to seduce and kill him,
too, but only almost, then she decides to pay Cynthia a visit to kill her
- but at the last moment, Cynthia is saved by the detective, who pushes
Miss Hide out of the window ... and once she hits the floor, she turns
back into Leeder. A modern day softcore sexploitation
adaptation of Jekyll and Hyde that doesn't really have all
that much going for it (apart from a few cute girls), as it tells its
story without any verve, takes its main (sex change) punchline from Hammer's
way more humourous Dr.
Jekyll and Sister Hyde, fails to develop it into a real plot and
thus hangs everything onto its many sex scenes - which makes the film of
course somehow charming for fans of vintage erotica, but doesn't make the
film as such an even remotely good one.
