The second problem is related to that first problem, in that most of the movie is devoted to him *not* using the coin to his advantage (which is what most people would do), or being responsible with the coin. Our hero is a college professor, yet the coin-related actions he does suggest he has put little thought into what he has discovered and what he should do with it. The first is that the characters act pretty stupid for most of the movie. But there are two main problems that shoot down the movie. The premise of the movie, while not really original (even when the movie was made), still did have some promise. (Whoopie!) *I* certainly thought that this was one of his weakest efforts. For one thing, the gimmick that he came up for this movie was to give patrons a copy of the coin seen in the movie. Director William Castle, upon seeing the end results of this movie of his, seemed to have realized that this movie wasn't up to his previous movies.
