Zotz Blu-Ray

Tom Poston (The Old Dark House) and Julia Meade (Pillow Talk) star in Zotz!, a scandalous Cold War comedy from director William Castle (13 Ghosts).

Eccentric professor Jonathan Jones (Poston) discovers a magical amulet that can be used to slow down time, cause pain, or induce instant death. When foreign agents attempt to steal the amulet for their own gain, Jones, along with his colleague Professor Fenster (Meade), must protect it.

With the help of Jim Backus (Rebel Without a Cause) and Margaret Dumont (Duck Soup), and a screenplay by Ray Russell (Mr Sardonicus), Zotz! is a delightful blend of slapstick and satire.
