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. [1] Stylistically it is closer to a standard Krimi film rather than a horror in the tradition of The Invisible Man . [2] 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. [3] It was broadcast on television but never released cinematically in the United States. [4]
