The drug transforms Pride into a homicidal white-skinned predator who goes out on murderous nocturnal rampages, mainly targeting prostitutes on the street corners of the Watts district; dangerously imposing cop Ji-Tu Cumbuka investigates. Known also as The Watts Monster and Dr. Black, Mr. Hyde, this film contains little of Blacula's Hammer-inspired atmosphere, choosing to adopt a standard low-budget urban-action style (with dialogue to match) until the King Kong-derived climax. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

    Just so people realize, this film's title is misspelled. Dr. Black & Mr. Hyde has a great trailer, but the movie itself could've been better. VERY strange to see Stan Winston, Johnny Pate, and Tak Fujimoto all worked on this movie, however. Crazy as hell. Fun for blaxploitation B... read more-movie weirdness, and definitely better than Blackenstein. But it's no Blacula.
