Dr. Black-Mr. Hyde (1976)

Dimension Pictures
Directed by William Crain
My rating: 1.5 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, VCI Entertainment)

Bernie Casey is an LA doctor who takes care of his poor patients in a Watts clinic by day and experiments with a serum in his lab by night. He decides to inject himself, which turns him into a white version of the Incredible Hulk. He has super human strength which he uses to kill pimps and prostitutes, in revenge for the death of his mother. Stan Winston's make up effects are just barely adequate, some white face paint and white hair, and there is no transformation, just a cut away. Good for a few laughs at the 70's kitsch, but impossible to take seriously.
