Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars A great film way ahead of it's time.......2007-06-13

The Invisible Man is way ahead of it's time. H. G. Wells was way ahead of his time. This film while not a perfect adaptation is still the best version that has been released. A great science fiction film with effects that still hold up.

5 out of 5 stars LAST BUT NOT LEAST................2007-02-22

The Invisible Man Legacy collection is a great buy. These films don't get the credit they deserve. At least the 3 Invisible man entries are well worth your time and money. Hey it's Universal,I love them all!

5 out of 5 stars Classic.......2007-01-13

If you are a fan of the classic horror film then this is a must.The special effects are suburb for their day and the film quality is very good.
All of the Legacy Collection Sets are worth the cost and i have them all.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent movie, poor "extras".......2006-09-17

For those who enjoy classic monster movies, this series will delight and amaze you. The special effects, particularly in the original movie, were incredible for the time, and easily contribute to the staying power of The Invisible Man. Claude Rains performance, especially, is incredible and easily overshadows any other performance in the sequels.

For those like me, however, who were hoping for the extras to detail the processes that went into making the movies, be prepared for a possible disappointment. They seem to concentrate more on the life of James Whale and the fact that he was a homosexual (and how noble that made him) in Hollywood at the time then they do in speaking about the films and what went into making them. I dont really see what the man's sexual orientation had to do with it; had it been a biography of him, I could understand.

All in all, a good collection!

2 out of 5 stars two movies dont work for some unknown reason.......2006-09-07

All these movies are good classics, but the problem is that Universal Studios' dvd transfer is horrible. two of the movies in this boxset dont even work and freeze when ever you play them. and its not just with this item, but also with some other legacy boxsets (including the one from hammer that are owned by universaL STUDIOS. either universal doesnt know how to transfer old movies onto dvds, or im just seeing things.
