The Adult Version of Jekyll & Hide + The Erotic Adventures of Zorro

The Mighty Monarch of Exploitation, David F. Friedman was no stranger to creating jaw-dropping sleaze epics, and in this first entry in a series celebrating his incredible filmmaking career, Something Weird and Distribpix present his final, and perhaps most notorious duo of sexploitation classics, both newly restored in 4K from their original 35mm camera negatives and on Blu-ray for the first time!

In THE ADULT VERSION OF JEKYLL & HIDE, Dr. Charles Leeder discovers the diary of famed Dr. Henry Jekyll tucked away at an antiques shop. Realizing that it will be instrumental in furthering his own experiments, he breaks into the store to steal it, killing the shopkeeper in the process. Now, with Jekyll’s body transformation formula all to himself, Dr. Leeder becomes the sultry “Miss Hide,” who uses her newfound sensuality to seduce - and murder - men and women alike. When a detective starts investigating the strange sex killings, "Miss Hide" is forced to resort to even more brutality to cover her tracks. Directed by Lee Raymond and produced by Friedman’s regular collaborator, Byron Mabe (She Freak), it stars Rene Bond (Fugitive Girls), Jennifer Brooks (Working Girls), and Jane Tsentas (Evil Come Evil Go) as Miss Hyde, this soft-X horror epic offers a nasty twist on Robert Louis Stevenson’s literary classic.

A peaceful Mexican village is besieged by the power-hungry General Esteban and his assistant Sgt. Felipio Latio in THE EROTIC ADVENTURES OF ZORRO, as they take advantage of the local women while forcing the residents to pay high taxes. Don Manuel determines that the only way to bring peace back to the region is for his tough and studly son, Don Diego, who’s studying abroad in Spain, to return and help the people fight back against their villainous oppressors. However, in order to first outsmart his enemy, Don Diego affects an outrageous camp persona at nighttime, donning the cape and mask of the fearless Zorro. As Esteban and Latio attempt to discover the identity of Zorro, Don Diego begins a romantic courtship that threatens to reveal his true self. Produced just at the tail end of the softcore drive-in market and directed by Col. Robert Freeman (Bare Knuckles), this lavish period piece comedy pushes the soft-X as far as it can go, and features a dazzling cast including Jacqueline Giroux (To Live & Die in LA), Starlyn Simone (A Climax of Blue Power), John Alderman (Little Miss Innocence), and exploitation legend Bob Cresse (The Scavengers) as Felipio Latio.
