What happens

The Invisible Terror (German: Der Unsichtbare) is a 1963 West German science fiction crime thriller film directed by Raphael Nussbaum and starring Hans von Borsody, Christiane Nielsen and Ellen Schwiers. Stylistically it is closer to a standard Krimi film rather than a horror in the tradition of The Invisible Man. The film's sets were designed by the art director Nino Borghi. Location shooting took place around West Berlin. It premiered at the Europa-Palast in Duisburg. It was broadcast on television but never released cinematically in the United States.
