''Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde: The Game - The Movie'' is a [[RealTrailerFakeMovie fake-trailer]] and ShortFilm written and directed by Creator/JamesRolfe (better known as WebVideo/TheAngryVideoGameNerd) as an adaptation of the infamous UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem adaptation of the [[Literature/TheStrangeCaseOfDrJekyllAndMrHyde the Robert Louis Stevenson novel]].

* AdaptedOut: The trailer makes no mention of the demon Letule, who is responsible for all the townsfolk being hostile to Jekyll and the source of the demons who attack Hyde. To be fair, the Angry Video Game Nerd never came ''close'' to encountering this boss, given the game's unfair difficulty and the cryptic steps in reaching the boss. Here, the townsfolk just plain hate Jekyll and the demons are there because reasons.

* MythologyGag: A lot of the jokes and lines of dialogue are all based off of the Nerd's gripes about the game [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6M_4Yqk65f8 both]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EjXn5qiM8Zw times]] he reviewed it, while most of the announcer's lines are ripped from the back of the game's box.

* AdaptationalVillainy: In the game, the townsfolk are actually running away from the likes of the mad bomber, hence why they deal damage to Jekyll when they run past him. Other elements in the Jekyll levels are explained simply by Jekyll being in the wrong place at the wrong time, hence why other townsfolk elements damage him. Here, they actively attack Jekyll for petty reasons.

* KafkaKomedy: Dr. Jekyll is portrayed as nothing but a NiceGuy, but everyone seems to take his politeness as a personal insult to the point of absurdity. Over the course of the video, Jekyll is [[CosmicPlaything beaten-down by everyone and everything]] as he is slowly driven to the brink. It gets so bad, he take obscene pleasure when he finally manages to kill a single bee.

* ThisIsGonnaSuck: Upon seeing the Mad Bomber placing another in-escapable bomb, Jekyll sighs in resignation.

* TemptingFate: When Jekyll's fiancee admits that she is worried about the wedding, Jekyll's response is literally "WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong" The next day, the entire town decides to form an angry mob at the pub, complaining about his punchable face and decides that he is deserving of death.

[[VideoGame/DrJekyllAndMrHyde The most dreaded NES game]] has come to life as a major motion picture. See Jekyll fight off an angry mob of villagers, animals, birds, and insects as he slowly walks to the church where his bride-to-be is. See Mr. Hyde fighting various demons in the alternate world of the village Jekyll resides in.

* InNameOnly: While the trailer markets itself as a faithful adaptation of [[Literature/TheStrangeCaseOfDrJekyllAndMrHyde the Robert Louis Stevenson novel]], it has about as much in-common with the book as [[VideoGame/DrJekyllAndMrHyde the game]] did (which the film is an actual adaptation of).

Here, they actively attack Jekyll for petty reasons.

* OutrunTheFireball: Jekyll attempts to escape from a lit bomb by [[TooDumbToLive walking away from it]]. Though, running away could probably not stop him from getting sucked into the explosion, anyway.
* RealTrailerFakeMovie: The trailer was made to be a short film made to mock the game it "adapts" and there are no plans to make a full-length film.
