Clue was one of my favorite childhood games. Mrs. Peacock in the study with the candlestick - of course!
The movie is pure mind candy. I loved it when I saw it and it would be the perfect flick for a pandemic stream. If you are up for more camp (and Curry) consider the Rocky Horror Picture Show. I haven't seen it since the 1970s when it was released. Not sure if the humor holds up, but I remember it as hysterical at the time.
CLUE the movie! Perfect. Followed by GOOSEBUMPS the movie, which is zany good fun.
Hi Kait, mind candy is the perfect term. I remember the Rocky Horror movie - what a scream (sorry!) and all the midnight showings. Definitely a good one for a pandemic playlist.
Hi Margaret, Goosebumps! I haven't seen that one. Going on the list, too!
I used to love playing Clue, and I’m sure I saw the movie. Nice diversions from the present.
What fun! I'll have to look for it.
Right now, I've been watching one show each evening with my husband--Brother Cadfael (the first ones were good; the last two I've seen, not so much) Midsomer Murders and The Vicar of Dibley. Then he goes on to watch NCIS, Andy Griffith or one of the myriad documentaries on World War I or II.
Shari, a good friend of mine in Chicago lived down the block from a theater that showed Rocky Horror every night at midnight. It was fun watching all the people in costume waiting for the theater to open.
Hi Susan, I have such good memories of playing Clue, too.
Hi KM, thank you for mentioning the Brother Cadfael shows - I may check them out (the earlier ones, as you said) And I may have been one of those on the way to that midnight show...
I still make my grandkids play the game whenever I can. I did not know there was a movie! I'll add it to my list.
