The Amazing Transparent Man (1960)

An ex-Army man (James Griffith) helps an inmate (Douglas Kennedy) escape from prison. His intention is have the escaped convict made invisible and steal the nuclear material needed to create and invisible Army to take over the world. Poor Edgar G. Ulmer! In the 1930s and 1940s, he was able to fashion some provocative "B" films on minimal budgets (THE BLACK CAT, DETOUR, THE STRANGE WOMAN) which gained him some stature among the auteurists. But by the 1950s, he was reduced to primarily to horribly inept low budget sci-fi schlock of which THE AMAZING TRANSPARENT MAN is a prime example. Clocking in at under an hour, it's essentially a piece of anti-Red propaganda disguised as science fiction. Sloppily put together, there's nothing of interest to recommend other than a fiery finale which presages KISS ME DEADLY. With Marguerite Chapman and Ivan Triesault.
