Although it ranks low on the list, Psycho's Anthony Perkins's twisted take on Dr. Jekylland his sinister alter-ego is certainly an interesting change from the typical cloak-and-dagger approach. This version certainly packs its own brand of bite. Instead of Hyde just being the anti-Jekyll, he also moonlights as the notorious Jack the Ripper. The way...
Although the Jerry Lewis version is higher-rated, Eddie Murphy's version of the comedic classic is certainly the more famous.

And with the number of voices and faces Jim Carrey is capable of, it was only a matter of time before he took on this kind of role. RELATED: The Invisible Man: 10 Other Universal Monste...
There is probably no take on the Jekyll and Hyde motif more familiar and recognized than that of Dr. Bruce Banner and his green-skinned alter-ego, The Incredible Hulk. Potions and tiles are exchanged for gamma radiation and an explosive temper, but the results are remarkably similar. Directly inspired by Stevenson's duo, Banner uses his unhinged ot...

The 1920 silent film featuring John Barrymore is easily one of the most highly regarded adaptations.
