7:30pm Live Murder Mystery with Murdle.com!

8:30pm CLUE (1985, dir. Jonathan Lynn, Paramount, USA, 97mns, 35mm)

SPECIAL NOTE: Yes, we’ve requested the 35mm print with all three endings of CLUE! Yes, this marks the return of MURDLE.COM who hosted such an awesome live murder mystery event last season before our screening of KNIVES OUT so we’re now doing this every season! It’s a blast. Your date night is done for the week, cuz!

Your ticket is for the entire event. All audience purchasing a ticket need to arrive by 7:30pm when the event begins. We will be closing the doors shortly thereafter.

Whaaaaattttt? Two movie and live events back to back? Yes, gurl. That’s just how we do. Tonight marks the return of murdle.com writer/director G.T. Karber and the Hollywood Mystery Society who last season blew our minds and challenged our brains with their live murder mystery puzzler ahead of Knives Out.

Karber and Company are cooking up a totally new live murder mystery which will begin at 7:30pm in the Secret Movie Club Theater. You’ll arrive, meet the suspects, hear the mystery, and then spend an hour talking, interviewing, looking for clues before the wrap up, prizes, and the finale.

Then we all sit down and watch the mid 1980’s murder mystery comedy gem Clue based on the board game. Writer/director Jonathan Lynn and his performers pulled a kind of Christopher Guest here by casting all the board game parts with talented comedians and improv performers including Madeline Kahn, Michael McKean, Martin Mull, Christopher Lloyd among many others so that all the proceedings would be a blast.

You know the plot even if you don’t know the plot: Ms. Peacock, Colonel Mustard, Professor Plum, Miss Scarlett and company all gather at a secluded New England Mansion where they all instantly become suspects in a murder.

Who did it? And to whom? And where? And with what? A murder mystery or the ground rules for some kind of safe word protected kinky sex game? You decide.

Come join us for a night of murder, mystery, movies, and just plain fun. On 35mm and live!

Best always,

Craig Hammill

*Please note that though we strive to always show titles on 35mm film if advertised, we may have to screen digitally if the print we receive is in such bad shape or if we don't receive the print in time because of a shipping delay. We will do our best to alert the audience. When this does occur, we will offer each ticket holder who chooses not to attend a complimentary ticket to a future event in exchange. (Disclaimer: Good for 90 days – Future screening must have available tickets, cannot be a fundraiser, and must be comparably priced)
