Murder Mysteries, 'Who done-it's...

They don't really ring true if the writer or director knows what's was going to happen the whole time. They end up spending parts of the movie just filling time, or implausibly positioning the characters in the Library with numerous candlesticks surrounding them.

What would really be cool, and more realistic, would be if one writer/director sculpts the first half of the movie, the setup, establishing the situation etc. and another writer/director has to write/direct their way out of it; escape the clutches of the previous creator. I reckon it'd be pretty cool.
