Storyline
Clue is a movie about 6 guests, a butler, and a maid, who are all involved in the murders of 6 people. The guests all meet at Hill House, where you learn that Professor Plum works in D.C., where everyone else lives. Colonel Mustard is a client of Miss Scarlet, who is the ex-employer of Yvette, the maid, who had an affair with the husband of Mrs. White, etc. When Mr. Boddy, who is blackmailing each guest, gives the guests each a weapon, he tells them they should kill Wadsworth, the butler, to avoid being exposed. With Mrs. Peacock's craziness, and Mr. Green's clumsiness, the whole group finds themselves tangled in a web of murder, lies, and hilarity. Written by Ali Harton

Trivia
In the theatrical trailer, John Morris' score is not used. In its place is Elmer Bernstein's score from Airplane! (1980). See more »Goofs
When the four men are carrying the dead Cook's body into the study, you can see it is not the same actress playing the Cook. The person (or dummy) is much thinner and takes up less space in the doorway. This is even more apparent after they drop the body and search for Mr. Boddy's missing body. When they rush back out the door, the Cook's body is taking up much more of the doorway, much more than the previous scene. See more »Quotes

Clue is a laugh riot from start to finish. The cast is great with the obvious star being Tim Curry. The plot is well thought out and is rather original. Clue is the perfect mixture of comedy and mystery. The best treat is that this movie has three completely different and hilarious endings. This is a must see.
