Murder, He Says is a 1945 American black comedy horror film directed by George Marshall and starring Fred MacMurray, Helen Walker, and Marjorie Main. The plot follows a murderous rural family and the hapless pollster who becomes entangled in their hunt for a cache of money. Filmed in the spring of 1944, it was held back for a year because Paramount prioritized releasing war-related films first, lest they suddenly become dated by the impending end of combat.
