Clue

Clue, an adaptation of the Parker Brother's classic board game features beloved actors in the iconic roles of Mrs. White, Colonel Mustard and the rest. This campy who-dunnit is not to be missed. Tim Curry plays the part of a simple butler, accommodating the guests as they find themselves stranded in a spooky mansion, desperate to discover why they were invited, and escape before their mysterious host traps then in his web of lies. After dinner, the guests suddenly realize they are trapped in the house with a killer, and team up, despite their mutual mistrust, to find out who, before they all end up dead. The witty one liners, and charisma flowing effortlessly among the cast makes this movie a cult classic. You will find yourself quoting your favorite parts, and may even discover the mystery isn't what you first thought.

It's Not Just A Game Anymore.
Murder, madness, mystery, and mayhem. More fun than you can imagine.
Seven Suspects, Six Weapons, Five Bodies and Three Endings.

[In the third ending]

Professor Plum:
It must've been Mr. Green who shot the singing telegram!

Mr. Green:
I didn't do it!

Col. Mustard:
Well, there's nobody else left!

Mr. Green:
But I didn't do it! The gun is missing! Whoever's got the gun shot the girl!

[Wadsworth draws the gun]

Wadsworth:
I shot her.

Col. Mustard, Mrs. Peacock, Mrs. White, Ms. Scarlet, Prof. Plum:
You?!

Mr. Green:
So it was you. I was going to expose you.

Wadsworth:
I know. So I choose to expose myself.

Col. Mustard:
Please! There are ladies present.

Wadsworth:
You thought Mr. Boddy was dead, but why? None of you even met him until tonight.

Mr. Green:
You're Mr. Boddy!

[Wadsworth grins and laughs]

Prof. Plum:
Wait a minute! So who did I kill?

Wadsworth:
My butler.

Prof. Plum:
Oh, shucks.

Wadsworth:
He was expendable, like all of you. I'm grateful to you all for disposing of my network of spies and informers. Saved me a lot of trouble. Now there's no evidence against me.

Mrs. White:
This all has nothing to do with my disappearing nuclear physicist husband or Colonel Mustard's work on the new top secret fusion bomb?

Wadsworth:
No. Communism is just a red herring.

Mr. Green:
But the police will be here any minute. You'll never get away with this, any of you.

Wadsworth:
Why should the police come? Nobody's called them.

Mrs. Peacock:
You mean-- Oh, my God! Of course!

Wadsworth:
So why shouldn't we get away with it? We'll stack the bodies in the cellar, lock it, leave quietly one at a time, and forget that any of this ever happened.

Mr. Green:
And you'll just- just go on blackmailing us all.

Wadsworth:
Of course. Why not?

Mr. Green:
Well, I'll tell you why not.

[he draws a revolver, and shoots Wadsworth; Wadsworth drops his gun]

Wadsworth:
Oh, good shot, Green! [slumps to the floor, reaches a hand inside his coat, and looks at the blood on his fingers] And very good.
