Who Killed the KLF?
The British electronic duo The KLF rockets to global fame between 1988 and 1992, topping charts and becoming household names. Armed with satire, they wage legal battles against The Beatles and ABBA over samples and publish the bestselling 'The Manual,' a tongue-in-cheek guide to scoring a number one hit. At the peak of their success, in a brazen act meant to mock the music industry's excess, they set fire to one million pounds in cash on a remote Scottish island and erase their entire discography, vanishing without a trace. Decades later, this documentary pieces together their audacious story, probing the ultimate mystery behind their self-destruction.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
This documentary is a thrilling archaeological dig into one of music's greatest mysteries, framing the KLF's saga as a punk parable for the ages. It celebrates their chaos without romanticizing it, leaving the myth tantalizingly intact.
What lingers after the final frame is the echo of a question: in a world obsessed with legacy, is the ultimate act of creation total erasure? — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Chris Atkins
