Jekyll: [while stumbling around dizzily and laughing, then writing in a notebook] No noticeable behavioral differences...

Blurb: David freakin' Hasslehoff plays the virtuous Dr. Jekyll and his murderous headmate Mr. Hyde. Watch him devour scenery, wear enormous fur coats, and have a full-on conniption on stage as the two headmates battle for dominance.

Why is it worth your time?: This musical is ridiculous. I cannot call it good, but I have watched it twice. You are either here to watch David Hasslehoff howling and clawing at his clothes, or you do not want to watch this. Even though Jekyll and Hyde is the millstone around many a multi neck, I can't deny, I enjoy how Hasslehoff portrays the switches and uses body posture, voice, and hair to show who's in charge at any given time.
