While researching a new drug, Dr. Jack Griffin (Claude Rains) stumbles on a potion that can make him invisible. When he reveals his new ability to his old mentor (Henry Travers) and his fiancée (Gloria Stuart), it's clear that a side effect of the potion is insanity. Jack goes on a violent rampage, and the police struggle to hunt him down, unable to see their target, while his mentor and his former partner (William Harrigan) desperately try to devise a plan to capture him.

Extras
• Now You See Him: The Invisible Man Revealed - The Invisible Man is put under the microscope in this Rudy Behlmer-hosted documentary pulled from the previously released DVD. Behlmer and other film historians and guests (actor Ian McKellen among them) weigh in on the movie and its production (tidbits include H.G. Wells' insistence that Universal stick to his book more than the studio had with Island of Lost Souls), as well as its themes, characters, performances, frights, practical effects and, of course, the monster of a man at the heart of the tale. (SD, 35 minutes, ENG,FRE,GER,ITA,SPA subtitles)
• Production Photographs - Movie posters, campaign art, production stills and other images. (SD, 5 minutes)
• Audio Commentary - Another Behlmer commentary, another undeniable thorough but unmistakably stocky reading of a pre-written, 71-minute film essay. With so much information to share, it's no wonder Behlmer jotted it all down ahead of time. It's just a shame he reads verbatim rather than referring to notes. Some freedom would make for a more passionate, personable commentary.
