Murder by Death, 1976, Comedy
Plot: A spoof of popular mystery films/ books this film puts the 5 best detectives in the world in a mansion to solve the mystery that hasn’t yet happened.
Thoughts: This film was very campy but never not funny. I really enjoyed it though some of the references went over my head. I really enjoyed watching the movie and seeing some of the best comedians display their talents no holds barred.
One of the characters was a little racist, but he was depicting another character so I guess that supposedly made it “all right”. The writing was clever and won an Oscar, it was fun to watch each detective try and one up the next. Watch it if you want something witty and mind-numbing.
3.8/5
