Curiosidades
William Castle: [gimmick] Upon its initial theatrical release, "Zotz" plastic coins were given to ticket buyers.

Pifias
When Professor Jones is being given directions, the officer tells him that the five sides of the Pentagon building are lettered A through E. This is not correct. The letter designations are given to the five pentagonal "rings", with A the innermost and E the outermost. Ten numbered corridors connect the rings. Offices are designated by floor number, ring letter, corridor and room number, e.g., 4C515, a system that is far less complicated than the one being explained.

Citas
William Castle: [points at the Columbia logo] Zotz!
Torch Lady: Zotz? What's Zotz?

Créditos adicionales
At the end of the closing credits, the Torch Lady in the Columbia Pictures logo smiles and says "Zotz all!"

Ya gotta admit it's a great title and Tom Poston is rather watchable for the nine-year-olds who are the target audience. It's just a silly chase over a coin with silly magical powers, and if one can overlook the Cold War propaganda was a fun fantasy for playacting with my little friends afterwards.

Watching it again as an adult I found it rather charmless but not a total bore.
