Faust is enlisted to steal "atomic material" to use during the research.Eventually, Faust discovers that the invisibility process is both unstable and deadly.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: The final line in the movies is spoken by Dr. Ulof. He turns and faces the camera directly and asks the audience, "what would you do?"

Failed a Spot Check: The guard at the roadblock knows a man has escaped from prison yet fails to spot Faust, whose disguise is only a hat pulled halfway down his face. He can't disturb a sleeping man to make sure he's not the escapee?

Binocular Shot: Used twice - and thanks to the use of Stock Footage, they randomly switch camera angles and locations, even though the guy holding them is standing perfectly still.

Artistic License – Nuclear Physics: Apparently, leaving the uranium outside the safe while the invisibility machine's running will cause an explosion that'll destroy an entire county.
