It was really as simple as ABC why this film was a dud, most of the suspense was lost in Tashlin's poorly conceived comic interpretation.

Description by OLDIES.com:
With a twinkle of his eye and a twirl of his moustache, Tony Randall steps into the patent leather pumps of Hercule Poirot - and joins the ranks of Charles Laughton, Albert Finney, Peter Ustinov, David Suchet and more distinguished actors who've charmed generations of audiences as Agatha Christie's renowned Belgian detective. The Alphabet Murders, based on Christie's The ABC Murders, adds lots of laughs to the brain-teasing tale of a serial killer who chooses his/her victims in alphabetical order. As quickly as you can say ABC, Poirot is on the case, pursuing gorgeous Amanda Beatrice Cross (Anita Ekberg), who confesses to the crimes in Poirot's Turkish bath. Poirot is shocked. After all, the ladies have their own facility elsewhere in the building. A befuddled British Intelligence officer (Robert Morley) galumphs along in Poirot's wake.
