User Review - 10/10 by Lyndsey CI recently bought the movies Edge of Sanity and Dominator. However, I decided to write a review about Edge of Sanity first. This film is Jekyll and Hyde meets Jack the Ripper. It stars Anthony Perkins as the repressed Dr. Jekyll and the devious Jack Hyde. The movie starts showing Perkin's character of Henry Jekyll as a child. He is watching his father have sex with a woman. While watching he falls and is hanging by his feet only to be beaten by his father while the woman laughs sadistically at him. Then the scene cuts to Henry as an adult. He is now a well respected doctor. He begins lab experiments on cocaine. When a lab monkey tampers with the substance he gets a big whiff of it and transforms into the evil Jack Hyde who begins terrorizing London by slashing prostitutes throats and engaging in very kinky orgies. I thought this movie was really good. This to me was Anthony Perkins at his best. I thought he was great as Norman Bates in the original Psycho and its sequels, but this was by far his best role, I love the part where he is having dinner with his friends and he shocks them by saying, "If there is a piece of food I want I take it *slams fork down on a piece of meat on a friends plate*. If there is a woman I want, I take her *grabs his friend's wife's hand*>". His friend replies asking what if he wants to arrest him. Jekyll says coolly, "You gotta catch me first.". I thought it was interesting that they made Hyde as Jack the Ripped as well. Overall this movie is worth 10 outta 10.
User Review - 8/10 by Tor Gan evil look at Dr Jeykell and mr hyde played by the great anthony perkins and like always is awesome at it
User Review - 8/10 by Jim MBudget: Low, Plot: Outragious, Acting: Mostly over the top and yet this movie managed to be one disturbing trip. Anthony Perkins plays Dr. Jekyll who after experamenting with cocaine becomes Jack Hyde aka Jack the Ripper. From here the movies pretty much Anthony Perkins acting creepy, consorting with hookers, gettting messed up on drugs, and then proceading to torment and carve up said hookers. Still Perkins switch from Jekyll to Hyde and back gain along with the level of violence he inflicts on the hapless woman make this one disturbing movie...and for a horror movie thats a good thing.

User Review - 8/10 by Masaio SMy favorite take on the Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde story.
User Review - 6/10 by Corey BNo one does a better psycho than the original Psycho, Anthony Perkins. Too bad his acting is the only really great thing about the movie.
User Review - 6/10 by Aj VI love Perkins, but this movie was really average. It could have been so much better.
User Review - 6/10 by Renae AAnthony Perkins steals the movie with his excellent portrayal of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. But the rest of the movie lacked appeal.
User Review - 6/10 by Andrew KA failed attempt to merge the stories of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with Jack the Ripper. An ambitious goal and an actor who probably could have pulled it off, but several parts simply came off as cartoonish. Almost as if they were trying to mix in some Clockwork Orange. Not Perkins' finest.
User Review - 6/10 by Orlok WAnthony Perkins invents crack cocaine and goes psycho once again--Perkins at his lunatic best!!
