Okay, here we go...

So I rented a movie way back when.

It was about a geek in high school who's scientist father died, I think.

Anyway the kid stumbles upon his father's INVISIBILITY experiment and accidentily perfects it. Anyway he does the usual things that a teenage boy would do if they could become invisible, like going in the girls locker room.

From what I remember, the substance wore off eventually and didn't affect clothing.

This ought to help identify the film:

As crazy as it sounds, the secret ingredient to the INVISIBILITY stuff was bird droppings from the birds living outside the kids house. The father never figured it out, or something.

In the end the boy gets the girl...

Anyone know the name of this movie? Would be appreciated. I'm guessing it's late 80's, possibly very early '90s.

Could it be 'The Invisible Kid'?

Good job! I usually do the IMDB plot searches when I'm trying to find the name of something, but was too lazy this time around.

Thanks!

It has to be 80's right?

If it is I can only think of The Onvisible Kid.

If not how about "Now you see them, Now you Don't"

Devolution here,

To correct you, it always didn't effect clothing. They would have to be naked to not be seen, which I enjoyed because it made sense.

I'm going to watch this tonight as it is one of my favorites from many viewings as a kid.....it needs a DVD release for sure. I haven't seen it in a few years so off I go and will be back with some witty commentary [Smile]

Two days, man. Two days I've been waiting here. [Roll Eyes]

I remember really liking The Invisible Kid, but I haven't seen it in years.

hmmm......This movie had alot of 80's boobs and you know 80's boobs are very different then the boobs of today so beware! I really like Jay Underwood. Loved him in The Boy that Could Fly and he did play the punk bf in Uncle Buck. Karen Black plays such an over the top evil mom haha

It's definatly campy and low budget.....I love Chynna Phillips doing the strip tease when she was invisible. "nah nah na nah"

I think i've always loved this movie cause I saw it so much as a kid......Was it an USA "up" all night movie? maybe??
