08/25/2019 One of great movies of my childhood. See more 07/19/2018 Really fun quasi sci-fi films I remembered as a kid and recently was able to see and it still holds up - plenty of entertaining performances by Tom Poston and Jim Bachus. See more Eric B 09/14/2015 "Zotz!" has a fun premise, a good cast (Tom Poston, Jim Backus, even Marx brothers legend Margaret Dumont) and William Castle's slick directing style, so why is this film such a drag? Poston is a college professor of languages who gets his hands on an ancient coin that bestows three magic powers upon its owner. Simultaneously, he is competing with Backus for a department promotion and courting an attractive new faculty member. So far, so good. But what are those powers? Something exciting like invisibility, telekinesis, flying or mind-reading? Nope. He can cause intense stomach pain, make things run in slow motion or shut down a person (or machine) altogether. Ho hum. Not so interesting, eh? "Zotz!" never overcomes this script problem, and a late attempt to add Cold War-era Soviet villains doesn't help.

Tom Poston and Julia Meade give horrible performances. The screenplay is badly written. William Castle did a terrible job directing this movie. I did not think that this motion picture was funny and was not impressed. See more 07/17/2013 Harmless nonsense is a change-of-pace for director Castle. See more 04/11/2013 William Castle tries but fails with this one. See more Read all reviews
