The Invisible Man is a science fiction horror film.

It’s the latest release by Melbourne-born director and screenwriter Leigh Whannell, who is known for his work on The Saw and Insidious.

The Invisible Man in a nutshell

The Invisible Man is an intriguing and tangled story.

The main character, Cecilia Kass, escapes her abusive and controlling partner, Adrian Griffin. Adrian is a wealthy scientist.  When he takes his own life, she believes it’s a hoax.
