6/10
Funny and entertaining

I'm still a little clueless as to why William Castle is a horror icon. It's most likely because my view of horror is way different than what was done in the 60's

I saw the the old Dark House which I thought was amusing more than scary, and this movie seem to becoming from that perspective.

Like The old Dark House it stars Tom Poston, who would seem like a weird leading man if this was not a William Castle film. Tom plays a language expert who reads the dead language on a coin and it gives him the ability to kill anyone he points his finger at. despite the dark story with Poston at the helm as the lead actor, it as a very Nutty professor feel to it.

The chemistry between Tom and the lead actress playing his love interest is also a high part of the entertainment value of the movie.

like the old Dark house this William Castle flick is worth seeing to be entertained by Tom Poston.
