Murder by Death
1976 · TMDB 7.1
Directed by Robert Moore
Lionel Twain invites the world's five greatest detectives to a 'dinner and murder'. Included are a blind butler, a deaf-mute maid, screams, spinning rooms, secret passages, false identities and more plot turns and twists than are decently allowed.
Why it matters
Neil Simon's parody of detective fiction gathers famous sleuths for a dinner party that turns deadly, much like the gathering in Clue.
