There is a kind of theme of the film, can be said to be a generation in the true sense is not as good as a generation.
That's the detective mystery film that once had a great aura of Conan Doyle, Agatha Christie, and so on.
In fact, you can't blame the current creator, after all, there are only so many brilliant ideas, and the more you go back, the more difficult it is to satisfy the audience's appetite.
So, if you like detective reasoning, you still have to look for old films.
For example, this wonderful, colorful and fragrant -
Magic Quest
Clue
The moon is dark and windy, and in a huge manor house, 3 people are carefully preparing a dinner party.
They are personable stewards, respectively;
A maid who is extremely unscientific;
And the chef who is very good at cooking.
Not long after, guests flocked to the scene.
Curiously, they did not seem to know each other and were asked by their masters to be code names.
For example, a serious mustachioed man is for the "Colonel of Mustard";
An Asian noblewoman who is guarding filial piety, known as the "White Lady";
A fancy aunt dressed in a strange costume, named "Mrs. Peacock";
Honest and responsible glasses man, code-named "Mr. Green";
The two who are late in coming are the lustful "Professor Plum" and the graceful "Miss Crimson".
Six guests dined, and the last guest, Bodi, arrived.
This elder brother is not only familiar with the manor, but also talks and laughs with the housekeeper and maid, and it is not an ordinary role at first glance.
In the face of the doubts of the people, the housekeeper had to take them to the study and explain the purpose of the gathering for the master.
In fact, all of you, who are well dressed, hide hidden secrets, and have been blackmailed by mysterious figures for a long time.
For example, Professor Li Zi, a researcher at the United Nations, once lost his medical license for molesting female patients;
Mrs. Peacock's husband is a powerful senator, but he does nothing wrong with bribery;
Miss Crimson, as her name suggests, single-handedly controls all of Washington's high-end on-call business;
Colonel Wasabi was not only a regular visitor to her, but also repeatedly made a windfall in the war;
The widowed Lady White is suspected of killing her husband, a nuclear scientist, with her own hands.
Mr. Green, who is sleek, is a deeply hidden homosexual;
As for Bodi, who has a name and a surname, he is the mysterious boss behind the scenes, who holds countless secrets.
The owner of the manor has money and leisure, and he has set up such a grand banquet in order to help everyone "solve" the problem at one time.
The housekeeper locked the doors and windows, notified the police, and recorded all their conversations.
As long as the police arrive at the scene after 45 minutes, they can bring the ill-intentioned Bodi to justice.
But rather than severely punishing the "bad guys", the crowd is obviously more reluctant to expose their secrets.
In the midst of the quarrel, the scene was once again plunged into chaos.
Bodi was confident, only to see him take out his suitcase and assign each person a murder weapon——
Candlesticks, hemp ropes, steel pipes, iron tongs, knives, pistols...
Then they schemingly offered a quid pro quo, as long as they managed to kill the butler and get the key.
Everyone in this room is free to leave and pretend that nothing happened to the gods.
At the same time, there is also a mystery hidden in the next room.
The maid and the cook, each pregnant with a ghost fetus, lie on the wall and listen carefully to their conversation...
As the tense atmosphere was about to reach its climax, the power in the house was suddenly interrupted, the lightning and thunder outside the window, and the loud noise was mixed with a gunshot.
After the dust settled, the others were safe and sound, and Bodi, who was in the center of the whirlpool, fell to the ground and died tragically...
The pistol originally belonged to Professor Plum, but he insisted that he had only been frightened and had not hit the deceased.
And Bodi did not have a gunshot wound on his body, and the cause of his death and the true face of the murderer were not clueped for a while.
Seeing this scene, the parents sighed and had to tell another layer of truth about the matter.
In fact, like all the guests, he was one of the victims of coercion.
The manor owner seized his wife's handle and coerced the couple into being his housekeeper for free.
But later, the wife could not bear the pressure and committed suicide with hatred.
The housekeeper decided to break the net and gather all the victims to expose the crimes of the owner of the manor.
That's right, the already cool Bodi is the real lord of the manor.
In other words, everyone present had a full motive to kill.
In the face of such accusations, everyone of course denied it and pointed the finger at the only chef who was not present.
Unfortunately, it was too late, and in the blink of an eye, the chef was stabbed to death in the storage room.
What is even more strange is that during the time when everyone left the study, Bodi's body disappeared first;
Then he appeared inexplicably in the toilet and was killed again with a blunt object.
This undoubtedly shows that there is indeed another mysterious figure in the villa.
To be on the safe side, the housekeeper decided to lock the 6 murder weapons in the cupboard and throw the cupboard key out of the house.
The crowd had just reached an agreement, but a passing tourist appeared at the gate.
He said that his car broke down and wanted to borrow their phone.
In order to avoid the matter being revealed, the crowd pretended to open the door to welcome the guests, and then locked the confused stranger in the lounge.
Two corpses, a prisoner, and the police who had made an appointment in advance were also about to arrive, and there was not much time left for the 8.
Colonel Wasabi stepped forward and proposed that everyone be divided into 4 groups and thoroughly investigate the whole villa.
In this way, whether the murderer is among them or someone else, something will be gained.
After a simple lottery, Mr. Green and the maid were assigned to the attic;
Professor Plum and Mrs. Peacock go to the dimly lit basement;
The housekeeper and the White Lady are in charge of the upstairs guest rooms;
Colonel Wasabi and Miss Crimson arrive in the labyrinth-like playroom.
The two mistakenly hit each other and found a secret passage.
At the other end of the secret passage is the lounge where the tourists are located.
At this moment, he has been hit to death by someone on the head...
Miss Crimson's screams drew the crowd of scattered people.
The housekeeper tries to open the door of the lounge, but finds that his key is missing;
The maid immediately took the pistol from the wide open cupboard and broke the door lock with an understatement.
The 8 "victims" who were pregnant with ghost fetuses finally reunited unharmed.
But new questions arise, as to who stole the butler's key, opened the cupboard, removed the iron tongs, and killed the tourists?
The crowd was quarreling, and the doorbell rang at the right time.
This time, it was a policeman who appeared at the gate.
Fortunately, he did not come to investigate the case, but just happened to pass by.
In the panic, the housekeeper repeated the trick and locked the police comrade in the office...
At this time, suddenly the bell sounded loudly, and the unknown policeman picked up the microphone casually, and was immediately stunned and stunned——
On the other end of the phone, it was FBI boss Edgar Hoover...
What kind of secret is enough to alarm this big guy out of the mountain?
And of the 8 survivors present, who are the real murderers?
What can be spoiled in advance is that the talented director and screenwriter even prepared 3 very different answers.
How exactly do they justify themselves?
Friends who want to continue to explore the truth can go directly to the film.
Of course, the evil lord will also bring the second half of the introduction at the same time tomorrow.
Everyone is not seen or scattered~
