{movie} clue (1985)

The ensemble cast is to die for in this board game-inspired camp fest. Butler Tim Curry opens the creepy mansion door one dark and stormy night to admit Mrs. White (Madeline Kahn), Col. Mustard (Martin Mull), Miss Scarlet (Lesley Ann Warren) and all others prone to wielding candlesticks and kitchen knives to keep their scandalous secrets. The whodunit crescendos into a madcap run about the house to solve the murders with three different endings.

ireviewnetflix.com rating: *** This was a a surprisingly good movie, but with such a stellar cast how could you fail. I was a little worried that, being based on a board game that, believe it or not, I've never played, this movie would be too over the top, but the humor worked and I found myself laughing quite a bit. The entire cast is hilarious and the movie is very enjoyable.
