Dr. Jekyll is the author of the best selling book Suck My Dick and he has a really big problem: the main character of his novel, Mr. Hyde, breaks out of Dr. Jekyll’s brain and sets up on his own. The nightmare begins.
With the help of the enchanting fairy Jeanny, Hyde slowly takes over Dr. Jekyll’s life. The author loses his hair, his teeth, his manliness and even his standing as a shooting star in the literature scene. His young girlfriend decides to leave him and when he begs his ex-wife for help, she lets him down as well. His psychologist considers Dr. Jekyll to be in a terrible state of mid-life-crisis and even diagnoses schizophrenia. Only his daughter stands by his side during the ordeal. As we see him fighting his nightmare, which became reality, we wonder if he will ever wake up …
