the invisible man returns (1940)

"How does it feel to have a phantom boyfriend?"
Geoffrey Radcliffe (Vincent Price) has been framed and falsely imprisoned for murder when he is visited by Dr. Frank Griffin (John Sutton). Geoffrey subsequently escapes and the Police are baffled until inspector Sampson (Cecil Kellaway) realizes that Griffin is the brother of the original Invisible Man. Could he have possibly given Geoffrey the formula to aid his escape? And can Geoffrey track down the real murderer before the drug's side effect drive him to madness?
Posited as a sequal to the popular Invisible Man, this entertaining thriller leans heavily on special effects, sometimes at the expense of the plot.
