Murder by Death


Released: 1976
Comedy
Director:  Robert Moore
Starring: Peter Falk, Alec Guinness, Peter Sellers
Running Time: 94 minutes
Rated: PG

The breakdown: Five famous detectives from novels come together at a big mansion over a weekend to solve a murder mystery that is promised to happen while they are there.

This movie is so funny.  I pick up on a new joke every time I watch it.  An eccentric millionaire invites five detectives to join him for a weekend at his secluded mansion for dinner and an overnight stay.  When they arrive they meet a blind butler and a deaf maid, but the millionaire is not yet there.  He shows up during dinner and promises that there will be a murder at midnight and that no one will be able to figure it out.  All the detectives love a challenge and are all ready for it, or so they think.  When they start trying to figure it all out, it just gets funnier and funnier.

This is a must see. 5 out of 5 for being hysterical and entertaining.
