The Alphabet Murders
It's really no mystery why this girl is MURDER... it's as simple as ABC if you look hard enough!
Directed by Frank Tashlin
Produced by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer British Studios, Lawrence P. Bachmann Productions
A lighthearted 1960s whodunit that treats a serial killer premise as a clever puzzle to be solved with wit and charm rather than darkness.
The Belgian detective Hercule Poirot investigates a series of murders in London in which the victims are killed according to their initials.
