THE INVISIBLE WOMAN (1940). Good special effects are all that save this painfully unfunny "Comedy". Dotty John Barrymore (his final film, I believe) wants to try his invisibility formula on a human to help out feckless benefactor and flighty model Virginia Bruce takes the plunge. Watch the 1933 THE INVISIBLE MAN instead. *

Yes, it's a great one. I will try looking at the source story some time. Ray Bradbury was another one of the great horror and suspense writers. I actually enjoyed "The Invisible Woman," but didn't expect much real amazing from it, just an enjoyable comedy parody that it is. Funny coincidence that you mentioned "The Invisible Man" from 1933. That's another classic I have always wanted to see, but never got the chance to. I should be able to rent that one on Prime over the weekend, though, and probably will if I get the chance.
