After staging his own suicide, a crazed scientist uses his power to become invisible to stalk and terrorize his ex-girlfriend. When the police refuse to believe her story, she decides to take matters into her own hands and fight back.
Elizabeth Moss does an incredible job as the protagonist, giving an emotional performance and being an absolute badass when needed.
The Invisible Man is an absolute must see and one of the best horror movies of the decade, competing with greats such as, ‘A Quiet Place’, ‘It 2017’ and ‘It Follows’. Leigh Whannel has created another instant horror classic. Leigh Whannel co created the ‘Saw’ and the ‘Insidious’ franchise and to me is one of best horror screenwriter and director out there, along with his co-creator of ‘Saw’ and ‘Insidious’, James Wan. I must admit, I had no idea that he was set to direct this movie, until 2 weeks before its release, and ever since I have been so excited to watch this. The Invisible Man is an absolute thrill ride, leaving audiences on the edge of their seats from the very opening second of the movie.
Leigh Whannel uses great imagery and beautiful cinematography panning the camera around the room and lingering the shot on ‘nothing’, making the audience believe the antagonist is standing right infront of us. Which creates a sense of eeriness and suspense. Leigh Whannel plays with the fear of the unknown and the unseen, which he does to perfection, as perfectly demonstrating one of the most tense, creepy, scary and eerie horror movies of all time.
Overall The Invisible Man is absolutley incredible, terrifying and intriguing and a worthy contender for movie of the year, and its only March. With a rocky start to 2020 in terms of horror movies such as the forgettable ‘Brahms: The Boy II’ and ‘Fantasy Island’. The Invisble Man definitley gives me hope that 2020 will be a decent year in horror movies, with releases such as ‘Spiral, From The Book Of Saw’ which I am super excited for.
I rate The Invisible Man a perfect 10/10. There is nothing else I can really say because, The Invisible Man is a perfect horror movie, and a worthy nomination for movie of the year.
Rated R
