Murder by Confusion

So the other night at Awesome Club we watched Murder By Death, a 1976 detective movie spoof that Amber allegedly saw in the theatre when it came out.

Even more confusing than that bit of calendrical math was the plot, which while non-sensical was pretty entertaining. Internals Plural favorites like Peter Falk, Eileen Brennan, Dame Maggie Smith, and Rhoda's mom, Nancy Walker, played caricatures of literary crime-solvers (Nick & Nora Charles, Hercule Poirot, Miss Marple, Charlie Chan) all trapped in a house by Truman Capote.

The most confusing part? Why Sir James Cromwell, of SIX FEET UNDER and BABE THE PIG fame was wearing a see-through mesh outfit while in bed with this Dom DeLouise like actor.

Roll tape!

It was no Murder, She Wrote. But it was still pretty good.
