The Invisible Man's Revenge

A fugitive arrives in England and confronts the former partner he believes abandoned him to die in the jungle after they found a diamond mine. The partner, now living in comfort, claims the mine and the fortune are gone, and turns him away. To take his revenge, the man accepts an offer from an eccentric scientist who has a serum that renders living things invisible, and becomes its human subject.

This 1944 Universal horror and science-fiction entry was directed by Ford Beebe, whose two credited features in the facts are Fantasia and this film in that order. Bertram Millhauser wrote the screenplay. Jon Hall plays Robert Griffin, with Evelyn Ankers, Alan Curtis, Leon Errol, John Carradine and Gale Sondergaard among the credited cast of thirty-one. It runs seventy-eight minutes and took two million dollars at the worldwide box office.

Audience response has been modest: on IMDb it holds a rating of 5.7 from around 3,100 votes, and on TMDB a rating of 5.6 from a much smaller base of 68 votes. The two figures sit close together, suggesting a similar reception across both audiences rather than any sharp division between them.
