[@TxSonofLiberty]

I love that Mrs. White threatens Wadsworth, he says no man in his right mind would be caught alone with her, then a little later Yvette asks if someone would go with her and Mr. Green says "No Thank You", and then when they draw straws, Wadsworth and Mrs. White end up alone together and Mr. Green ends up being the one to go with Yvette.

[@puppyash9656]

This is a comedic masterpiece. Every line, every shot, so perfectly lined up. The cast, playing off of eachother, and so brilliantly tuned. This is as close to perfection as it gets.

[@BackFromUranus]

Fun fact: the "flames on the sides of my face" was completly improvised by Madeline.

[@bobblebardsley]

"He won't be driving home officer, I promise you that" might be my favorite line in this whole movie.

[@mvf80]

“Math is the Devil’s art”. You are absolutely right!

[@daniellanctot6548]

The bit I always use is, whenever someone says "To make a long story short....", I slip in "TOO LATE!". You'd be surprised how often I get to use it (And the reactions are hilarious!)

I do that a lot too. And it's all because of Clue.

Murder By Death is a great ensemble murder mystery lampooning the mystery novel genre.

[@samfisher6606]

My favorite ending is the one with Wadsworth as the killer. I just like the idea of the main character and arguably the investigative force of the movie actually being the killer.

@@garycallan7384 It was a play. The execution of the film adaptation is impressive. Very tight filmmaking.

[@jeremygeorgia4943]

Ok, it's not exactly the same type of movie, but I recommend "Without a Clue", if you haven't already seen it. It stars Michael Caine. It tells the story of Sherlock Holmes, but from the angle of Watson being the mastermind, and Holmes being mainly a figurehead. It's a bit like Remington Steele. Of course, something happens to Watson, and Holmes has to figure out how to get him back.

[@DASBIGUN]

now, from what I understand, they shipped the endings to different movie theaters across the country. So depending on where you went, you would see a different ending. THIS, is actually something I want to see again happen nowadays.

[@tomjandrews5334]

probably the reason the movie failed in the cinemas... Most viewers never knew about the alternative endings.

[@Zartoo_3rd_Overlord_ofBlargon7]

It was a huge mistake. This movie didn't do well as a result which is a crying shame given what a master class it is.

I have watched several other channels that did this movie, you are the only ones to really enjoy the continuous jokes throughout the movie.

[@anemicgoalhop495]

Yeah, when reactors don't even get the jokes.....smh.

[@lildivaaa411]

Thank you SO much for reacting to this movie! It's in my top 10 movies of all time. I never get tired of watching it. It's like visiting with an old friend. Yes...the jokes are somewhat super corny, but that's what makes it lovable. Fun fact...Lee Ving who played Mr. Body, was in a punk rock band in the early to mid 70's called "Fear". They were invited to play on Saturday Night Live in it's very early days by one of their biggest fans, John Belushi. What makes this notable is that after the performance, they were banned from SNL for life. They played offensive songs, used obscene language and the dancers destroyed the set with their slam dancing onstage.

As a fan of Tim Curry after playing Red Alert, my favorite bits were the Tim Curry scenes. the math scene had me laughing my socks off though.

Another great movie in the same vein with an amazing ensemble cast is Noises Off. Carol Burnett and John Ritter are amazing slapstick actors.

[@edwardtoyebo9690]

It gets me every time Madeline Khan smacks her champagne flute against the mantel and screams "Please".

Tim Curry was amazing as a voice of Gabriel Knight. As a gamer I started to notice his talent more through games first. Then later he played Soviet leader in Red Alert 3, that was so funny and unexpected.

[@Aeroldoth3]

Never played GK... I'm more into rpgs than pncs. I saw him first in Rocky Horror Picture Show.

[@RichardX1]

I first saw him in "Annie", but as I was only 5 at the time, he didn't make an impression on me. This was the first film in which I really noticed him, although I didn't lock in the name until I saw it in the credits to "Fox's Peter Pan and the Pirates".

Another good movie in a very similar vein to this one that you guys should totally check out at some point. Is Murder by Death. Very funny comedy mystery in the same sort of style just years before.

[@Robert-ht7om]

A movie similar in where we see a lot of people running around and several things are happening is the comedy "Oscar" from 1991 with Sylvester Stallone, Marisa Tomei, and Tim Curry, takes place during the prohibition era with Stallone as a mobster trying to leave that world behind.

[@arisucheddar3097]

I was looking for your comment. I'll add that no one's reacted to it that I've seen, so that can sometimes add a little appeal.

[@drewrayg]

Absolutely one of the best comedies ever made.

[@kristynwoods]

Emily's laugh is so infectious lol 😆

[@osculim]

What a classic. I have this still on VHS

[@ratspike8017]

This is a great movie it is true, but the house always reminds me of my mum's job. She was a guide at Newstead Abbey in Nottinghamshire (as owned by Lord Byron) and that is riddled with secret passages - for real. This fascinated me in my former years... I also cured my fear of the dark by `playing' around the Abbey at night. It is a great old gothic building, complete with forests, formal gardens and a tomb for Byron's dog. Wander around there at night and NOTHING seems scary afterwards...

[@DonDuracell]

The part at 10:44 where a guy is asking to use the phone after his car broke down in the rain reminds me off the Rocky Horror Picture Show movie.

If you looked at the showings in the paper, it would say that this theater had ending "A" and this theater had ending "B". I learned that ending "C" was the true ending and that was the one I saw. I didn't see the other 2 endings until it came out on VHS, which had all 3 endings.

So many reaction channels all watching the same movies. Huge coincidence, or dastardly conspiracy? You be the judge.

That's just the KZbin algorithm feeding you things you have already seen because it's a guaranteed view.

[@mgordon1100]

@@roubador It's not the algorithm that forces them all to watch the same movies, unless we're living in a matrix. Same with the music reactions. They all watch the same stuff because they get to see what doesn't get blocked or generate a copywrite strike.

Weirdest bit of casting in this is Lee Ving as Mr. Body. He was the frontman and guitarist for the LA hardcore punk band FEAR which was featured in the legendary music / punk documentary "The Decline of Western Civilization"

[@1nelsondj]

Another Madeline Kahn movie you should check out is "Mixed Nuts" which also stars Steve Martin and Rita Wilson with lots of character actors. Those 3 run a suicide help line, it's near Christmas and there's a serial killer on the loose. Michael McKean is underrated, he played Lenny in "Laverne & Shirley", was the lead singer in "This Is Spinal Tap", was on SNL for 2 seasons, he was in 30 episodes of "Primtime Glick" and lots more.

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

Clever idea to get people to see your movie multiple times (to get all three endings). Reminds me a bit of "Murder by Death", but that one is funnier in my opinion.

[@kirkwells7537]

Another fun movie is Victor Victoria plus it has some fantastic musical numbers. Leslie Ann Warren (Miss Scarlet) has a memorable role in it.

[@HostaMahogey]

"I wanted to be with Tim Curry" you have EXCELLENT taste, I must say 😂😍

[@waynezimmerman5308]

So while most people remember Eileen Brennan from Private Benjamin(with Goldie Hawn), I also think of her as the DJ, Mother, from the 1978 film, FM. That also had Martin Mull in it, as well as Cleavon Little. Howard Hesseman was best known as Johnny Fever in the TV series WKRP in Cincinnati, playing a disc jockey not really like the one Mull did.

[@isthisoklahoma]

Pass the Ammo (1988) is not considered a classic, in fact it has been hard to find at times. It has some Tim Curry comedy gold moments in it.

[@Gravydog316]

Love Clue! I auditioned to be Miss Scarlet, but everyone said I had to be Yvette 'cause of my massive cleavage, but I did get to wear a $500 custom maid outfit exactly like the one in the movie, which was awesome

[@adamferguson1064]

BTS fact: Lesley Anne Warren was producers’ second choice after they saw her in “Victor/Victoria”; their first choice was Carrie Fisher. The insurance company said “Are you nuts?!” Shortly thereafter, Miss Fisher was in rehab.

[@allzuckedup]

Flame...flames...flames on the side of my face...

[@EloPSuperFly]

If you loved this movie, you gotta watch "Murder by Death". It's an 70's crime/mystery comedy that parodies the great fictional detectives of literature (Ms. Marples, Dick Tracey, Charlie Chan, etc.). All are all invited to a mansion by a mystery host who tells them they are all full of shit, and then announces out of spite he will be murdered that night and challenges them to solve it before dawn. Peter Falk, David Niven, Fay Wray, Peter Sellers, Eileen Brennan, etc.

[@cmyFUfinger]

I was in love with Scarlett back in the day

[@PChazman1]

Should watch Murder by Death, a sort of precursor to this style of movie comedy.

[@FIDreams]

Look up 'Murder by Death' which is what this movie was trying to emulate. The comedy is more on point in that move with a lot of Adult Humor. :)

[@TxSonofLiberty]

Probably stated elsewhere, but with nearly 200 comments at the time of me adding this, not going through them all. Fact 1) There are 4 shot Endings, and six written endings, however test audiences for the 4th ending disliked it and it only ended up in like 3 theatres nationwide, so when they did the compilation ending, they didn't include the 4th ending, and the other two endings were left on earlier drafts of the script, never to see the lights of on set. Fact 2) The infamous Flame Lines were entirely improvised by Madeleine Kahn. Fact 3) Actually, the Flame bit wasn't the only thing improvised. Mr. Green's "I hate when he does that" and Mrs. White's reaction meek scream are among the numerous improvisations throughout the film. Professor Plumb's position demonstration... the "Mummy and Daddy" (Col Mustard scripted line was "When my Parents died during the war", but Mull substituted the more childlike "Mummy and Daddy" which triggered the reaction by Curry you see on screen).

[@toddcraner3843]

Great now I have to watch the movie, on the bright side I have it on dvd and I always allow the ending to be random.

This has to be one of the most fun movie sets ever. Emily, do you think there will be a remake of this classic?
