1961 Experiment
A college freshman takes a course in Principles of Geology with the sole intention of meeting and hopefully becoming romantically involved with a certain classy young coed. He unwittingly picks exactly the wrong girl for his purposes when they eventually team up to do a research project. In lieu of love, she persuades the reluctant fellow to accompany her on a perilous trip back to the "upside-down" year of 1961. Numerous ironic twists, perfect timing, sheer coincidence, and shrewd detective work lead the couple to a discovery relating not to geology, but to a strange, super-secret experiment that went disastrously wrong 40 years ago. When authorities catch wind and realize their erstwhile efforts to disguise this World War II enigma have been jeopardized, they take extraordinary measures to stop the students from actually seeing the 'ghostlike' truth and presumably becoming victims of it.
