The actor playing Mr. Boddy is the front man of the alternative rock band Fear, and was chosen because his name is Lee Ving - Mr. Boddy will be 'LeaVing' soon. more
Goofs:
Incorrectly regarded as goofs: In the third ending, Wadsworth (in a voice over) speaks of Col. Mustard splitting up with Miss Scarlet prior to killing the motorist. The visuals show Col. Mustard engaged in an argument with Mrs. Peacock. This was to illustrate the part where Col. Mustard suggests they split up into pairs. more

A cult classic, 22 September 2000
Author: Op_Prime from Ardmore, PA

Clue is a laugh riot from start to finish. The cast is great with the obvious star being Tim Curry. The plot is well thought out and is rather original. Clue is the perfect mixture of comedy and mystery. The best treat is that this movie has three completely different and hilarious endings. This is a must see.
