Dr Jekyll vs The Werewolf Availble On DVD

An excellent horror film (Jekyll vrs The Wolfman) that is hard to get a hold of these days. The following review below comes from Amazon.com, it is important to note that their are several releases of this old horror film. One such release has cut out about twenty minutes of nudity and violence. Your best bet is to find this flick on ebay, I have provided results below.

Customer Review: Dr Jekyll vs The Werewolf
Note: I haven’t even seen this particular release of the Paul Naschy flick, but those seeking the best possible copy should try tracking down the Mondo Macabro (UK division) release. It’s PAL, but will play on your computer (or all-region DVD player) fine. It’s a beautiful anamorphic 16:9 print, in spanish but with optional english subtitles (no dubbing though). The movie is one of Naschy’s best, he plays both a werewolf and Mr. Hyde (in the same body)! It starts off a little slow, but once the action shifts to London, it’s a hoot. Beautiful and angular Mirta Miller steals the show as a really vindictive assistant to Dr. Jekyll. Awesome.

Customer Review: Marginal Print Quality
Since this DVD is shown as “deleted,” this review may be moot. In any event, I will limit my comments to print quality. The “Werewolf” print is better than I expected, with bright colors (usually), although pan & scan picture. However, the movie is listed elsewhere as having a running time of 96 minutes while the print used here is only about 74 minutes. From reviews of the uncut version, it appears much violence and nudity (!) have been excised. Also, there are no opening credits and the end credits aren’t enough to identify the actors or title. There isn’t enough here to justify purchase of the DVD for this movie alone. “Moon of the Wolf” is/was available on the same label coupled with another title. It is a better-than-average 1970s television horror movie, with the ever reliable David Janssen; however, the print quality is marginal–watchable, but no more. This is a dollar DVD. It isn’t worth more.
