Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931)

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is an American horror film directed by Reuben Mamouloan. It is one of the first film adaptations of the novel, as well as the first that has still survived to this day.

Why It Rocks

 * 1) Phenomenal acting by Fredric March, who did a great job portraying both Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.
 * 2) Excellent, convincing special effects when Dr. Jekyll is transforming into Mr. Hyde.
 * 3) Mr.  Hyde, despite how much of a horrible person that he is, is still oddly entertaining to watch when he's harrassing women, (and other people), starting fights, and causing a ruckus.
 * 4) Mr. Hyde is one of the Monsters that's part of the Universal Horror Monster Cycle, released in 1931, the same year as Dracula and Frankenstein.
 * 5) Despite the rest of characters not being very interesting, their actors still did a good job.
 * 6) Great soundtrack.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) Sadly, the only interesting characters in the film are Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. All of the rest are boring and thrown away to the void of forgettable-ness.
 * 2) There is an awful NES game based off the movie.
