A Little Murder Never Hurt Anybody

The Perrys have it all money, friends and status in the community but their marriage seems to have landed in a rut. As they make their traditional New Year's resolutions together, Matthew declares to Julia that he wants something more to be able to travel abroad, to play golf everyday, to spend more time at his club. Thus, he resolves to kill her by next New Year's Eve so he will be free to pursue his heart's desires. Julia takes his resolution in her stride and resolves to remain alive. Their games begin and they let no one stand in their ways as they attempt to keep their resolutions as the year goes by. To liven things up, we add the Perry's spoiled, dingy daughter Bunny, her bright and forgiving boyfriend Donald and their plans for their wedding on the following New Year's Eve. We also have to deal with Buttram, the Perry's longtime butler who harbours a dreadful secret or two. Entering into the fray is a bumbling police detective named Plotnik who tries to figure out "who-done-it" assuming that something really has been done. Who will succeed in his or her resolution, and who gets caught in the crossfire?
