(tbh I need to watch two times to understand, and I’d say this is aesthetically beautiful but disturbing)

What an aesthetic disturbing nightmare that feels like a lavish painting suddenly torn apart by madness. Walerian Borowczyk stages the film like a decadent 19th-century drama. With candlelit halls, opulent gowns, a wedding party brimming with polite society. But within minutes, that elegance mutates into something grotesque...

The transformation scene itself feels uncomfortably sensual, Dr. Jekyll dissolving into Edward Hyde not with thunder and lightning, but through a physical, almost erotic metamorphosis that’s as mesmerizing as it is sickening. And once Hyde emerges, with his wild-eyed, with sword in hand, he stalks the house like a violent ghost, The attacks on the guests are brutal not just in their bloodshed, but in their sexualized cruelty, making each death sting with a twisted intimacy (screaming in pain)

Love how Borowczyk refuses to let us hide in morality. Miss Fanny Osbourne, first framed as the graceful fiancée, becomes increasingly complicit (love-hate with the ending, but gosh she’s so stunning!)

By the final act, when she no longer recoils from Hyde but leans into him, the horror reaches its peak. It’s not simply about a monster unleashed, but about the seductive pull of the darkness we try to deny 🩸❤️‍🩹

p.s thanks to my cinephile friend Rocky who introduced me with this amazing movie ;)
