The Rejuvenator. 1988.
A ageing actress hires a scientist to create a formula to make her look young and get the spotlight again, the formula she uses has monstrous side effects.
This is a take on the "Fountain of youth tale" or in this case the Serum of youth, that blends with some decent acting, the script may be at times all over the place and some good make up effects from Ed French but again it's the 80s and why we love these films from out younger days.
For a homage to Jekyll and Hyde (this was what I thought it was) it was decent with some good gore and blood splatter, it does combine the slasher genre with a monster movie genre it did make a good combination even though it shouldn't work but the makers tried their best to make sure it did, this is one of those forgotten movies but thankfully someone uploaded on youtube.
