Perry Mason: The Case of the Lethal Lifestyle (1994)

Bill McKenzie, a seasoned lawyer now reveling in the tranquility of his retirement years on his ranch, finds himself drawn back into the legal maelstrom when his old friend, Perry Mason, requests his assistance. Perry's commitment to a speaking engagement is interrupted, and he calls upon Bill to step in. Bill's journey to the conference leads him to a hotel brimming with influential personalities, including a renowned chess master, Daniel Kingman, an old acquaintance of Bill. The hotel serves as the backdrop for the latest episode of 'Lifestyles of the Wealthy and Well-Known', a popular show hosted by the unscrupulous Adrian Lye. Lye, known for his manipulative tactics, attempts to corner Kingman into appearing on his show, resorting to blackmail when persuasion fails. Tensions escalate, culminating in a heated confrontation in Lye's suite, where later Lye is found lifeless, a victim of poison. Kingman quickly becomes the prime suspect, and Bill steps up to defend him, unwilling to believe his friend could be guilty. With the assistance of Della Street and Ken Malansky, he embarks on a quest for truth, navigating through a tangled web of deceit and hidden motives. Meanwhile, Malansky sets his sights on a mysterious 'waiter' who was last seen delivering the fatal drink to Lye's suite, believing the poison was introduced prior to reaching its ill-fated recipient. In 'Perry Mason: The Case of the Lethal Lifestyle', the tranquil ranch life collides with the glamorous yet treacherous world of the rich and famous, as Bill McKenzie returns to his roots to seek justice for an old friend. The movie is an intriguing exploration of loyalty, friendship, and the relentless pursuit of truth amidst elaborate facades of wealth and power.
