Damn! I can't believe how much this turned me on!!!


Seriously, John M. was WONDERFUL in this movie!!! If I were Mary I would have been on him like white on rice! The sexual tension was driving me out of my mind, I kept hoping that Mary would rip his clothes off...I would have told him to run away with me after he had his way with me!!! Wow, he was so sexy!

same here! I mean..well...im a 21 female and I have been in looooove with John ever sense I saw Dangerous Liaisons. (almost similar character) so I have to say it wasnt Hyde who turned me on, it was just John. There is something so sexy about him to me! whether hes bald or has long hair (I prefure long), he turns me on! Mr.Hyde was a sadistic murderer and a deviant. But you could see Mary brought out the softer side of him and if I could have Mr.hyde all soft that would be hot! But remember what he did to that prostitute? And stomping that little girls guts in! Not attractive, I would screw Mr.Pool before I got with him. Heh.

I agree! I'm a moderate John fan, which basically means I can watch his movies and enjoy them but I hardly ever "fall madly in love with him." But this movie got me. He was just great! I was definatly turned on by him.


BTW, your sig, the Woody Allen thing, that's from "Love and Death" right?

Gotta add my vote in on this too. YES! I was very surprised at how much I reacted to the film. I do think it has mostly to do with John M because I, too, have always loved his movies, his acting, his presence, and even little oddities or quirks,--for him, perfect. And yes, yes on the sexual tension. Amazingly so!

The scene where he rips her nightdress off her back and licks her while she sleeps is SO erotic, too bad it was a dream! I found that very, very sexy.

I know this is such an extremely ancient thread. I'm glad the mods didn't delete it. They do that a lot with the "older" threads.

But I had to return after watching it again. I admit that I was really surprised to see just how many women also felt so turned on by this movie and by various scenes. It was palpable! I watched it with my spouse and he really didn't get it. I mean he liked the movie, he's a JM fan in a big way too. I am not a Julia Roberts fan so I know it wasn't her presence. But man, JM just absolutely exuded sexuality, sexual tension, eroticism, power, seduction, and the ability, regardless of character played, to make a woman weak in the knees. It's absolutely his essence and it's undeniable.

For me, it was the scene where he could "smell her" and told her he could tell that she wanted him to stay around,...."unless [my] sense of smell deceives me." Man I thought I'd melt. Hubby didn't really pick up on that one right away but it seared through my body.

I have rarely seen such a powerfully erotic performance that was delivered almost as if it was second hand.

Yes, that sense of smell scene is fantastic! I started having dreams about him after I watched it for the first time. He's so fantastic.

reply

Same here! I was getting all hot and bothered with her dream about him!

reply

Ditto, the sexual tension in this film is off the scale! I agree stephanie2130 John M is definitely hot in Dangerous Liasons.

reply

Actually MissyBaby its from Annie Hall :)! Or is it Husbands and Wives? Shoot I cant remember! thats bad, lol. I havent even seen Love & Death but I do own it on DVD ;)
And as you can see I have changed my signiture, lol. I just watched the new 007 last night and fell in looooooove with Daniel Craig...those eyes, that body..DAMN! And I loved that part where the doctor gives him a sudden shot and implants the locater thingy in his arm and Bond looks at him and goes "OW." That made me laugh so hard, lol. I loved it so much I thought about making my sig

"OW."-James Bond hehe

This entire thread needs more d!ck.

reply

Same here... I thought I was crazy, I'm glad some others found these feelings watching this film =D

reply

Wow, I thought I was the only one turned on by this film! John's character was attractive as both Jekyll and Hyde, although after seeing him stomp that girl I didn't like Hyde at all.
But the sexual tension was indeed unbearable, I kept saying aloud "Come on Mary! Just tell him how you feel!" and "Come on, Harry! Its okay to love her! Both you and Mary would finally be happy!!!"

I am so glad that I am not the only person....

I have only recently seen this film but am now strangely attracted to John Malkovich... DAMN!! He was just so appealing!!

Personally I definitely prefered the many moments of soft romantic tension between Jekyll and Mary over the dangerous heat from Mr Hyde. As well as I prefered the doctor in general, but I know he wouldn´t be really Jekyll without Hyde ( or, maybe better, there wouldn´t be the whole story ).


( *Advertisment on* Gosh, I did even fanart for Mary x Jekyll ... http://chepseh.deviantart.com/art/Cross-my-heart-92059953 http://chepseh.deviantart.com/art/Mary-Reilly-and-Dr-Jekyll-92096990... WARNING, anime-design! )

reply

I am glad that I am not alone on this one. I am very attracted to Jekyl in this movie, and I was to Hyde as well until he stomped on that girl...I was like "NOOOOOO..! Now I cannot like you anymore, for ethical reasons!" :)

This movie may be very flawed, but I love the direction, the cinematography, set design and most of all the atmosphere! This movie may not work for some people, but it definately works for me.

reply

I thought me and my sister were the only ones, lol. When we first watched this we were on the edge of our seats wondering if they'd ever DO IT! This movie had so much sexual tension it's ridiculous.

Where have all the good writers gone?

reply

Are you sure it wasn't those perverted doodles the doctor did in his anatomy books? LOL

I'm watching it now, and I LOVE the scene when he rips off he nightgown. Too bad it was a dream b/c she should have jumped all over that!

I FEEL THE SAME WAY!!! NO LIE!!!
