#187 - Clue - Murder, Misdirection, and Madcap Comedy

Ready for a killer good time? Join Armand and Alex as they unravel the zany, rapid-fire murder mystery of Clue—from cult classic status to its razor-sharp comedy, legendary cast, and the infamous multiple endings. Whether you’re a longtime board game buff or just discovering the film’s madcap magic, this episode dives deep into how Clue turned whodunnit logic into pure cinematic chaos, why Tim Curry steals the show, and whether the movie is the ultimate Halloween pick. Plus: off-the-rails tangents, pop culture connections, and what makes this gleeful satire truly timeless. Stop scrolling and get clued in!


What to expect from the episode:

  • A lively exploration of why Clue (1985) is a cult classic, from its rapid-fire comedic delivery and ensemble cast performances to its clever satirical take on the whodunnit genre.
  • Behind-the-scenes insights into the film’s production history, alternate endings, casting choices (including the indispensable Tim Curry), and its surprising parallels to contemporary mysteries like Knives Out.
  • A spirited discussion on the film’s legacy, why it remains atmospherically perfect for Halloween, and debate around whether a modern remake could ever recapture its unique charm.
