Claude Rains bietet in seinem ersten Spielfilm eine faszinierende Darstellung als mysteriöser Arzt, der ein Serum entdeckt, das ihn unsichtbar macht. Von Bandagen umwickelt, die Augen hinter einer dunklen Sonnenbrille verborgen, begibt sich Rains in ein kleines englisches Dorf, um seine Entdeckung geheim zu halten. Aber das Mittel, das ihn unsichtbar macht, treibt ihn allmählich auch zu unaussprechlich grausamen Taten.
