Description

Collection of thrillers adapted from Agatha Christie novels. In 'The Mirror Crack'D' (1980) excitement runs high when the feuding film stars Marina Rudd (Elizabeth Taylor) and Lola Brewster (Kim Novak) arrive in the sleepy English village of St Mary Mead, ready to begin work on a movie about Elizabeth I and Lady Jane Grey. But the experience quickly turns sour when an innocent bystander drops dead at a party after drinking a poisoned cocktail.

Everyone assumes the drink was intended for Marina, but local resident Miss Marple (Angela Lansbury) has her doubts and begins to investigate. 'Death On the Nile' (1978) follows Hercule Poirot (Peter Ustinov) as he hunts a killer responsible for the murder of a rich heiress aboard a steamship travelling down the Nile. After discovering that a number of the passengers had a reason to kill her, Poirot faces a race against time to solve the case before the ship reaches port.

'Murder On the Orient Express' (1974) follows Belgian detective Hercule Poirot (Albert Finney) as he travels back to London aboard the Orient Express. Heading into heavy weather, it's not long before the train becomes stuck in snow while travelling through Yugoslavia. When one of the passengers, millionaire Ratchett (Richard Widmark), is murdered overnight, Poirot faces a race against time to discover the identity of the killer.

Finally, in 'Endless Night' (1971) young heiress Ellie (Hayley Mills) has recently married her chauffeur and moves into a large and well-appointed house. But before long her dream home turns into a nightmare, as strange and mysterious events push her to the brink of sanity. Is the house possessed by an evil spirit, or is there an explanation closer to home?
