The Misadventures of Merlin Jones (1964)

The Misadventures of Merlin Jones (1964)

The film plays like it was two episodes of a TV show strung together. Tommy Kirk plays Merlin Jones, a nerdy genius who somehow develops the ability to read minds and learns the power of hypnotism. I wrote about this movie a little more detailed in my movie review of Doubt. But you will have to read that review to know what I said.

Popular star Annette Funicello who was cool enough back then to just be known as Annette plays his trusted girlfriend who suffers through her dream man’s nerdiness. There is the Funny Chimp. Robert Stevenson again directs.

Lots of laughs.

 Lots of Fun.

 Lots of Crazy Disney Nutteness.
