The Invisible Man's Revenge (1944)

An Underrated Invisible Gem


To me this is one of the best films in The Invisible Man series. This 5th film is more in the vein or spirit of the first two films: Invisible Man (1933) and The Invisible Man Returns (1940). This 5th film "Revenge" has a feeling of being the Invisible Man again. The Invisible Woman (1940) was a cute comedy while Invisible Agent (1942) focus was on war.

Like the first two films,  The Invisible Man's Revenge (1944) is a sci-fi horror peppered with comedy. I highly enjoyed this particular installment of the "family" of Invisible films.

The Invisible Bird and Dog in home of Doctor Peter Drury are fun. The Invisible Man himself, Robert Griffin, is quite mad and twisted as Dr. Jack Griffin and Geoffrey Radcliffe.

"Revenge" is worth watching - and, to me, an underrated film in the series.

9/10
