Case of the Smiling Stiffs
1973
Teaser Storyline for Case of the Smiling Stiffs
For the past four months, the city of Miami has been plagued by a mysterious string of murders, occurring after each full moon. Each corpse is male, and has been found in bed with a huge grin on his face. Unlike the case of
Dracula, who drained his victims from the neck, these victims are drained from a more discreet part of the body.
The police department and the two zany detectives, Joe and Frank, who are called in to investigate, are baffled.
Joe and Frank begin a thorough investigation, question everyone who could possibly have anything to do with the case. None of their leads pan out. Operating on a hunch that the killer is a beautiful young woman, the two policemen narrow their investigation down to a half dozen swinging girls.
As the investigation proceeds, the local newspaper begins an investigation of its own and assigns reporter Richard Silverman to the case. Silverman, a dashing young ladies' man, joins
|
forces with Joe and Frank, and together they continue the investigation.
No stone remains unturned in their search for the killer. Their dedication to finding the culprit gets them involved in orgies, parties and strip poker games, in which they become participants-but "only in the line of duty"!
Hoping to avoid another incident on the next full moon, Chief Inspector Barnes asks his friend Nora Caldicott, a socialite in the neighborhood, to give a party. She agrees, and all of the prime suspects are invited.
On the night of the party, Joe and Frank continue their surveillance of the suspects. Nevertheless, shortly before midnight, yet another grinning corpse is found in the master bedroom.
During a hilariously quick-paced chase, Silverman unsheathes his silver weapon, exposes the killer, and the case is solved.
