The Incredible Mr. Limpet (1964) was written by an author of lurid pulp novels.
The Incredible Mr. Limpet was released on 28 March 1964.
Jameson Brewer, Joe DiMona, and John Rose wrote the screenplay, based on Theodore Pratt's 1942 novel.
Don Knotts had signed on to star in the film in 1962, with the stipulation that filming would take place while he was on break from filming The Andy Griffith Show.
While the film received mixed reviews, it was a box office success, and Knotts (believing that The Andy Griffith Show was ending after it's 5th season) signed a 5-film contract with Universal Studios, preventing his full-time return as Barney Fife.
