| Finally released outside Japan for the very first time, these unique riffs on H.G. Wells classic character (though undoubtedly aIso 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. ln The lnvisibIe Man Appears, written and directed by Nobuo Adachi in 1949, a scientist successfuIIy creates an invisibiIity serum, only to be kidnapped by a gang of thugs who wish to use the formuIa to rob a priceIess jeweI. In addition to being the earliest surviving Japanese science fiction fiIm ever made, the fiIms entertaining special effects were an early credit for the legendary Eiji Tsuburaya, five years before he first brought Godzilla to Iife.
