Hollow Man (2000)

In this take on the Invisible Man story, arrogant researcher Kevin Bacon offers himself as a test subject for the invisibility formula his team has been working on. His self-sure personality only gets worse when he can’t be seen. Surprisingly its special effects mostly hold up to modern times, with some really cool looking bits as beings go in and out of visibility. The female characters, aside from Elisabeth Shue, do not fare better, relegated to either sexual victims (Rhona Mitra) or incompetent assistants (Kim Dickens). The end takes an unexpected turn into full on slasher horror, even having the sole Black actor, Mary Randle, as the first victim.   SciFi  Horror  Thriller
