Hollow Man is a 2000 science fiction horror thriller film directed by Paul Verhoeven, written by Andrew W. Marlowe from a story he co-wrote with Gary Scott Thompson, and starring Elisabeth Shue, Kevin Bacon, Josh Brolin, Kim Dickens, Greg Grunberg, Joey Slotnick, Mary Randle, and William Devane. The film is about Sebastian Caine, a scientist who volunteers to be the first human test subject for a serum that renders the recipient invisible. When his fellow scientists are unable to restore him back to normal, he becomes increasingly unstable and eventually goes on a killing spree.
The film grossed $190 million worldwide but was not well received by critics. It was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects in 2001, losing to Gladiator. A direct-to-video stand-alone sequel called Hollow Man 2, starring Christian Slater and Peter Facinelli, was released in 2006.
