The film version of Kurt Vonnegut Jr's famous anti-war sci-fi novel.

A mad megalomaniac scientist has been experimenting with drugs (monocane) and discovered the secret of invisibility, except that he normally covers himself in bandages in order to be seen! After a bit of crime and killing in a Sussex village the demented soul has to leg it.
Superior stuff, especially with the slow uncloaking of the scientist's invisibility, and the movie that turned Claude Rains into a star.
