* AudienceColoringAdaptation: The film incorporated elements not just from the novel, but also from screenwriter Philip Wylie's 1931 novel ''The Murderer Invisible''. In Wells' novel, Griffin was already evil before he became invisible, and did so out of a lust for power, while in the film, he only turns evil after the experiment when he realizes what he can get away with. The pseudo-remake ''Film/HollowMan'' would take a similar track in its characterization of its villain. Griffin was also a loner in the original story, while in the film, he has a beautiful fiance, which [[Film/TheInvisibleMan2020 the 2020 remake]] would run with.

** Though one lady was quite clearly terrified of the Griffin in a pair of a policeman's pants skipping and singing a ditty, we sure found it charming. Especially when he nearly slips after singing.
