Invisible Avenger is a 1958 American film noir crime film directed by James Wong Howe, Ben Parker and John Sledge. The film was a compilation of two television pilot episodes of a 1957 Republic Pictures[1] TV show called The Shadow. When the show failed to sell, the episodes (one of which was directed by cinematographer James Wong Howe) were edited together and released as a theatrical feature called Invisible Avenger.[2]
The film was re-released in 1962 under the title Bourbon Street Shadows by the Louisiana-based MPA films.[3] The episodes were shot on location in New Orleans.[4]
