Hollow Man (2000)

The thought of human invisibility has intrigued man for centuries. Repeated in oral tradition and literature since ancient times, the fascinating subject is now being explored by the acclaimed motion picture director Paul Verhoeven in a provocative new suspense thriller, Hollow Man.

In the latest gripping film entertainment to spring from the fertile mind of Verhoeven (Basic Instinct, Starship Troopers, Total Recall, RoboCop), highly gifted scientist Sebastian Caine (Kevin Bacon) develops a serum that induces complete invisibility. His remarkable transformation results in unimaginable power that seems to suffocate his sense of morality and leads to a furious and frightening conclusion.
