A guy is broken out of prison by some other dude that he doesn’t even know. It turns out that the dude who was broken out of prison is an expert lock-pick and then the dude who broke him out is some sort of ex-military dude who likes taking advantage of weak-minded individuals and who happens to be holding a scientist prisoner who built him some sort of radioactive invisible ray. So the military dude wants to turn the other dude invisible so that he can robe some vault containing nuclear material. The ex-military dude has this elaborate laboratory set up in his attic where his scientist-hostage performs the experiments for him. So the one dude is turned invisible and naturally he starts to beat up the ex-military dude and then he demands that he gets paid twenty-five thousand dollars for his services as opposed to the original one thousand. The ex-military dude also has a female prisoner-servant lady who falls in love with the invisible man just because he talked to her. Then there is this other guard guy who we find out (in just about the last scene) was being tricked by the ex-military guy because he told him that his son was alive when he was actually dead. I think it was supposed to be a plot twist but considering that there was absolutely no mentioning of the guard-dude’s son or his personal life all together up until that point it really wasn’t that great of a twist. . . So anyway, something goes wrong and the amazing transparent man becomes visible as he is robbing a bank. In the end he gets in a fight with the ex-military dude. The one lady gets shot in the back. Then the two dudes get killed as the house blows up in a nuclear explosion. In the last scene, the scientist is talking to a police officer about the morality of being able to turn invisible and then he looks at the camera and asks the viewer “What would you do?” as if the debate concerning the morality of turning invisible was a real ethical concern! This bold movie dared to tread the ethical ground of which no other movie has gone before! Is the exclusiveness of this material because it is so controversial or perhaps because it’s a retarded fucking question that no one gives a damn about?
