The inkeepers wife was absoulutley the most annoying character to appear in ANY film in my opionion.But as I said in my review,Claude Rains made up for it with his excellent performance.

I am quite old, (almost 79).
I was 6 years old when my mother and father took me to see the Invisible Man at a theater in San Diego, California.
I sat there almost in terror at several of the scenes. Like when he unwound the bandages so he could eat in his room at the inn.
Also, the footsteps appearing in the snow as he walked toward the RR tracks to throw the switch to send the train to destruction.
For along time afterward, I had bad dreams about this movie.
I have no idea why my parents took me to see it.
I have seen many movies since then, but this one still remains with me.

Jim- Not sure if your going to read this but here goes (I am replying to your older posting)
I am always interested, when I watch older movies, on how it played to the audience. You are a perfect example of someone who I'd like to get your impression not only of this movie, but of some of the other classics that you remember seeing on their initial release.
It is interesting that you found the footsteps frightening, why do you think that stayed with you as long as it did?
What other scenes did you find to be scary?
I first watched this movie on TV during the late 60's. The scene that always stayed with me was the opener, that snowy night, and the line "a room and a fire." That to me made the movie. -

In the late 70s, early 80s my brother used to watch all of these classics. I'm four years older than he, and I was in my mid to late teens. These movies scared the crap out of me! I didn't try watching them until recently and can't get enough of them!
