The horror movie genre is a sort after genre. It's ability to instill fear despite being an act is quite commendable.

The invisible man was a break from the norm of regular horror story. With horror movies and haunting, you would expect the presence of a malevolent spirit, but the case was quite different. It takes a look at the life of an abusive woman who must do what she can to escape her abuser; her husband.
A suicide case turns to a haunting case, as the "spirit" of her husband comes knocking. With the lives of loved ones on the line, she races against time to prove her innocence and sanity.
The main actress Elizabeth Moss who starred as Cecilia Kass was impeccable in her acting. Her facial expressions were dead on as they accurately depicted what she was going through at different stages. Though the movie leaned on a feminist level, it was a strong motivation to not stay in an abusive relationship. Oliver Jackson Cohen (Adrian) also delivered perfectly. Sending out psychopathic vibe throughout the movie.
The supporting acts were also on que and delivered accordingly. I could feel their fear and anger. The directing was also amazing, as the intense kept building up to the very end.
This remake was definitely worth it, though it wasn't the continuation of the initial storyline. Popular rating sites like Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic were on the favourable side as they gave positive reviews of up to 90percent. The movie was a box office hit with a budget as low as 9million it grossed above 100million.
I'll recommend this anytime. Also try watching it at night, it makes the feeling more intense.
