I absolutely love this movie! The cast is just spot-on, and the dark humour of its screenplay is definately up there for my personal taste.
Up until now I always thought that there were only three endings that were shot... only this afternoon I found a website that states that a fourth (more sinister conclusion) was filmed; which has wadsworth (the brilliant tim curry) confess to the murders of the night, and ultimately meet his maker in a different way to what we saw in ending three. I can see why it wasn't used, but I do hope it will surface on a special edition DVD someday. Maybe some nice extras would be a great addition too... Paramount please take note and provide us a goodie!

Oh Grems---I absolutely love Clue!!! I totally know what you mean about the cast being spot on!!! Fabulous.
I cannot believe that there is a 4th ending. Please give me more details about this! Maybe they should release a special anniversary edition with some behind the scenes things. I would love to see how the making of this movie went. Cast interviews, relaxed shots of all of the interior. I would love to know more about where this was made.
Great post today grems!

Theres absolutely loads of info on that website/link I gave up there; from pictures to deleted scenes, to trivia and goofs etc. Its pretty cool.
The fourth ending is actually in the novella of the movie, and the person who made the site says that Jonathan Lynn (the director) just wasn't simply happy with the fourth ending, and Tim Curry says it appeared to obvious. You can read more about it in an extract of the novella which is also included on the site.
Glad someone else loves the movie like I do!

I love Clue too! It was always one of those you'd watch at the slumber party and play the game after....I like to play Clue even now with my little cousin.
Tim Curry, I agree brillant! The cast was huge.....Martin Mull,Chris Lloyd,Colleen Camp looking at the cast list haha even Jane Weidlin was the telegram girl "we got the beat".....The score was great to Clue especially towards the end!

I could never get tired of watching Clue - the pacing is just so frenetic, the acting is awesome, especially Madelaine Kahn... so icy yet freaky at the same time.

"I hated her so much....flames....flames..."
One of the most underrated comedies ever. As mentioned, Tim Curry blew me away in this, and one of the most amazing paces I've seen. I always wanted to take a whole day with a yellow legal pad and chart everything said in the three endings and actually see if it was true. It must've been a nightmare to write the screenplay.
Sadly, the house no longer stands. Paramount designed it for the film then knocked it down. Would be awesome if it were on a lot tour.
