What Is The Invisible Man About?

“The Invisible Man” is a sci-fi horror remake of James Whale’s 1933 horror film based on H.G. Wells’s novel of the same name.

The film removes the focus from its titular villain and follows the harrowing experiences of his victim.

The Emmy-winning Elizabeth Moss stars as Cecilia Kass, a tormented woman trapped in an abusive relationship with a wealthy inventor. Cecilia decides to escape and break free from her boyfriend’s clutches. Days later, Cecilia learns that her ex has committed suicide following her escape. Despite her freedom, Cecilia’s former partner looms over her and continues to haunt her. Soon enough, Cecilia begins to experience a series of disturbing encounters with an unseen figure.

• “This gratifyingly clever and, at times, powerfully staged thriller is too rooted in our era to be called old-fashioned — its release, in fact, feels almost karmically synched to the week of the Harvey Weinstein verdict. Yet there’s one way that the movie is old-fashioned: It does an admirable job of taking us back to a time when a horror film could actually mean something.” – Owen Gleiberman of Variety 
• “Moss continues to deliver what we crave from woman characters: the kind of messy yet sturdy intricacy many of today’s thinly conceived you-go-girl female superheroes continue to lack.” – Tomris Laffly of RogerEbert.com
