Thirteen at Dinner
Thirteen at Dinner is a 1985 adaptation of Agatha Christie's novel Lord Edgware Dies, which was released in the US as Thirteen at Dinner, starring Peter Ustinov, Faye Dunaway, and David Suchet. Since this was a television movie with a lower budget than Ustinov's previous two turns as Hercule Poirot, 1978's Death on the Nile and 1982's Murder Under the Sun, this film and the two others that followed were all set in the present, which might be jarring at first. Also jarring is the fact that David Suchet, who would go on to play Poirot for over two decades, stars alongside Ustinov's Poirot as Inspector Japp. Most of the action takes place on the set of a film-within-a-film.
The following weapons were used in the film Thirteen at Dinner:
Custom L1A1 Battle Carbine
An actor playing a henchman fires a custom L1A1 SLR at Bryan Martin's (Lee Horsley) stuntman on the set of the latest Jake Slagle movie. It appears to be the same weapon used in The Wild Geese
Uzi
Another actor playing a henchman is armed with an Uzi.
Custom flamethrower
Another actor playing a henchman fires a custom flamethrower at Bryan Martin's stuntman.
Federal Gas Riot Gun
Another actor playing a henchman fires a Federal Gas Riot Gun. It is shown to be capable of firing HE grenades.
M1 Carbine
Actors playing assassins are seen loading an M1 Carbine while filming another scene in the film-within-a-film. The carbine is equipped with a scope, a suppressor, and appears to have some sort of camouflage on the stock.
