Falk is terrific - he feels like early Shatner at times - but the rest of the film is just flaccid. It still amazes me that those goofy beatniks were once considered a credible threat to America.

Sucked, but it had Columbo.

Columbo plays a drug pushing beatnik who tries to get away with a perfect murder: ground glass in a hamburger! Falk is the only thing worth watching in this, actually.
