Trivia

Invisible Man Appears was one of Eiji Tsuburaya's earliest projects as a special effects director. Tsuburaya would become renowned for his work on Godzilla five years later.
Daiei would later produce a second Invisible Man film, Invisible Man vs. Human Fly, in 1957.
Daiei's rival studio Toho would later produce its own adaptation of The Invisible Man, simply titled Invisible Man, in 1954. Eiji Tsuburaya would also work as a cinematographer and special effects director on that film.
