Hollow Man (2000): *



In this modern take on H.G. Well’s classic tale The Invisible Man, Dr Sebastian Caine (Kevin Bacon) is the arrogant Twinkie-eating genius leading a team to create an invisibility serum and reversion serum. After ‘successful’ experiments on animals – because increased aggression is not a symptom to be concerned about at all – Sebastian decides to proceed to human experimentation, using himself as the first test subject. Turning invisible is easy for Sebastian, it’s the reversal process that proves to be tricky. Hollow Man proceeds to show the audience how giving a jealous megalomaniac invisibility is a very bad idea.
