After being wrongly convicted of killing his brother, Geoffrey Radcliffe (Vincent Price) faces a death sentence. But Dr. Frank Griffin (John Sutton), whose brother invented an invisibility potion, helps Radcliffe flee prison by injecting him with the serum. Unfortunately, the serum has a nasty side effect: it slowly but surely leads to insanity. So while Radcliffe is now free to find the real killer, he also is in a race against time -- unless Dr. Griffin can invent an antidote before it's too late. (Verleiher-Text)

Obwohl der erste Film besser ist, habe ich mich darüber gefreut, dass diese Fortsetzung nicht mit heißer Nadel gestrickt wurde (es wirkt zumindest so). Die Autoren haben sich mit diesem Film wirklich Mühe gegeben. Ich bin der Meinung, dass das Genre aber kein Horrorfilm mehr ist, eher ein düsterer Abenteuerfilm. Ein großes Plus ist Vincent Price, für den es kein Problem ist, den fortschreitenden Wahnsinn nur mit der Stimme darzustellen. Die Tricks sind wieder ausgezeichnet.

The American film The Invisible Man Returns is an example of how a sequel may not be as good as the original film, and yet it still has something to keep the audience interested. That’s also the case long after the film's premiere. The special effects are great and Vincent Price didn't underestimate his role. The filmmakers really played their cards right, and that's a good thing. The film isn't downright dark, though it does have some good scenes, but it’s the playfulness that makes the film entertaining. You will enjoy watching it.
