It's a famous gimmick film

When it was first released to the cinema, it contained one of three possible endings (in keeping with the game). Different cinemas would get prints with different endings, leading to arguments over who the murderer actually was!

That sounds really cool, a little like the 'werewolf break' in The Beast Must Die.

Youd never heard of Clue?! It's a brilliant film, particularly seeing as it's based on a board game. Remarkable that to this day Hollywood still hasn't nailed a video game adaptation.

That's perfect because a used copy is near £9.00 on MM. I will add it to my list and watch it when I've finished my current season of Bates Motel.
