[Makai]

I love this premise.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

Lost it when he got sucked into the bomb

 

[Rhomega Beta]

That was awesome.

 

[Tansut]

I love that it included a scene explaining the town's irrational hatred of Jekyll.

 

[TheChits]

Excellent.

 

[Zee-Row]

As someone who actually beat that game as a kid this is hilarious!

 

[SigmasonicX]

That was pretty great. I loved the parts with the angry townspeople in the bar and the bombs.

 

[AlexBasch]

"Sorry, honey, I'm late! I had quite a day. The whole, all living creatures in the whole fucking town tried to kill me, that's all!" (Drinks some more tequila.) What makes him think the church is gonna be any better? Is the priest gonna throw candles at him? Is Jesus gonna climb off the fucking cross and start hitting him with it?

 

[ckohler]

Love that slow walking.

 

[Ishida]

"He has eyeballs for testicles!"

Loved it. :3

Guy with the bomb is Mike.

Guy who shoots the bird is Doug Walker

And that's James himself.

The tombstones are references too, Bela Blasko is Lugosi's real name and Lorre is likely a reference to Peter Lorre

 

[evilromero]

Bookmarking for later. I hope we get more of these.

 

[chubigans]

That was amazing.

 

[Amagon]

I am sooo fucking down for this lol!

 

[Zatoth]

Amazing. Wish there'd be more.

 

[Finaika]

Hahahaha!

Awesome!

 

[Transistor]

Fucking hell, this is the greatest thing I've ever seen

 

[KalBalboa]

Amazing premise. Needs less Doug Walker though.

 

[Cow Mengde]

I think this is his big secret project he's been talking about.

 

[Darrenf]

So this is what James was working on. Really enjoyed this.

 

[thefro]

Amazing premise. Needs less Doug Walker though.

I didn't even notice Doug or the normal Cinemassacre crew except for Bootsy and Kevin Finn.

I think this is his big secret project he's been talking about.

It is.

 

[BatDan]

Would love to see James and crew do more of these with other notable shitty games.
Like Deadly Towers or Bible Adventures.

Amazing premise. Needs less Doug Walker though.

Really? He had one quick scene and didn't say anything. Come on.

The classic tale of horror comes to vivid life in this cinematic adaptation of the NES video game. See Dr. Jekyll fight off enemies in hazardous 19th century London. See Mr. Hyde battle demons with his deadly psycho wave! Which will triumph? Good or evil?



It’s just a trailer. Not an actual movie. A one-time spoof. Not endorsed by the 80′s video game, or Robert Louis Stevenson’s corpse.



This was a fun secret project that I planned for years. The first scene was shot in December 2014 (The pub). The majority was shot this past Summer 2015. The effects shots and post-production was in the Fall.

Noooooooooooooooooooo. I was hoping for a fun 10 - 15 minute short.

Man, I don't get it?

I don't have any context for the game, I don't remember it whatsoever.

This should have started with some game footage as a refresher and point of reference; a normal "Nerd" review perhaps and then the trailer play at the very end. Seems like a huge missed opportunity. The effective audience that would understand most of the apparent jokes in the live action trailer is probably super small in scope.

Well I assume this is more for the fans and he's already reviewed the game what, twice now?

Just watched it. I could see some studio watching this and wondering if anybody was doing a real movie on it.
