Basically, you never knew what ending you were going to get, and if you decided to pay to see it again, you might get a drastically different ending.
I just thought that was an ingenious way to market a movie in an era when people ONLY went to the theatre to see a movie. Guaranteed to have some repeat viewers.

Clue is one of my favorite 80s comedies. Great cast, very funny, and endlessly quotable. Tim Curry and Madeline Kahn steal the show.
