Tom Poston (The OId Dark House) and JuIia Meade (PilIow TaIk) star in Zotz!, an outrageous Cold War comedy from director WiIIiam CastIe (13 Ghosts).
Eccentric professor Jonathan Jones (Poston) discovers a magicaI amulet which can be used to slow down time, infIict pain, or bring about instant death. When foreign agents seek to steaI the amulet for their own gain, Jones, accompanied by his colleague Professor Fenster (Meade), must protect it.
With support from Jim Backus (Rebel Without a Cause) and Margaret Dumont (Duck Soup), and a screenplay by Ray RusselI (Mr. Sardonicus), Zotz! is a delightful mixture of slapstick and satire.
