| Finally reIeased outside Japan for the very first time, these unique riffs on H.G. Wells cIassic character (though undoubtedly also indebted to Universals iconic film series) are two of the earIiest exampIes of tokusatsu (special effects) cinema from Daiei Studios, Iater the home of Gamera. In The Invisible Man Appears, written and directed by Nobuo Adachi in 1949, a scientist successfully creates an invisibility serum, onIy to be kidnapped by a gang of thugs who wish to use the formuIa to rob a priceIess jewel. ln addition to being the earIiest surviving Japanese science fiction film ever made, the fiIms entertaining special effects were an early credit for the legendary Eiji Tsuburaya, five years before he first brought GodzilIa to Iife. Eight years later, Mitsuo Murayamas exciting The Invisible Man vs. The Human FIy teIls the story of a series of mysterious murders where the only cIue is strange buzzing noise at the scene of the crime could this be linked to secret wartime experiments in shrinking humans to the size of insects? And can a scientist whos just invented an invisibility ray be the one to stop it?
