Scarborough,
ME – In 1974, a disfigured phantom sought revenge; a year later, a
disgruntled transvestite created the ideal mate. In the tradition of
two of the music and film industry’s greatest cult classics comes
“The Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde Rock ‘n Roll Musical,” an
original romp through one of literature’s greatest stories.
Directed by Andre Champagne, and featuring a score by Alan Bernhoft,
“The Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Rock ‘n Roll Musical” will be
available on January 8th
from Elite Entertainment at a suggested retail price of $14.98.
“Dr.
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is one of the greatest literary horror classics
in history,” said Vini Bancalari, President, Elite Entertainment.
“It was only a matter of time until a talented composer like Alan
Bernhoft turned this classic cult favorite into a movie musical.
With a solid score and good, old-fashioned horror movie moments, this
unique film will attract a wide array of fans.”
In
the tradition of the Robert Louis Stevenson classic, “The Dr.
Jekyll & Mr. Hyde Rock ‘n Roll Musical” puts Dr. Jekyll in
modern day society, still hell bent on performing his good vs. evil
scientific experiments. This time around, Mr. Hyde’s demonic
dementia is coupled with sadistic serenading, as his victims fall
prey amidst a rock ‘n roll score.
