Clue

Movie based on a board game? Blegh

But it's awesome. Tim Curry, Madeline Kahn, Christopher Lloyd, Lesley Ann Warren

Having John Landis write the story didn't hurt.

It is then we're reminded of the ability of good writers and performers to take even a low-potential idea and fucking kill it. With a pen. In the study.

Absolutely one of my favorite movies
