To Kill a Dead Man is a short film made in 1994 by the trip hop group Portishead.

The theme can be found on both the 1995 compilation album Glory Times and the 1994 CD single "Sour Times". The music video for "Sour Times" also uses footage from the film.

A still from the film is featured on the cover of their album Dummy and several other stills appear in the CD booklet. A miniature image of the poster for the film is visible in the upper left corner at the back of this album.

  • Your video is popular on New Zealand

  • this song is called "Theme from To Kill a Man"

  • @KURISUCHRIS99 Actually, they have received quite a bit of praise and their album Dummy went up to #2 on the UK album chart, along with receiving various other honors since.

  • What's not to love about Portishead? Wonderfully haunting.

  • I found a summary of the plot on the internet. Essentially, the guy who got shot hired the assassin to fake his own death in order to drive his wife insane. That's why you see her in a straight jacket (the cover of Dummy) and in the hospital replaying his "death" in her mind. After her recovery, however, she then hires the same assassin to kill her husband and get her revenge. At the end the husband realizes he let the man who is going to kill him into his car, and his wife gets the last laugh.

  • I love when you're trying to watch something that commands your full attention and that wonderful spinning circle keeps popping up it the middle of the screen. It's like your internet provider is giving your concentration a much needed rest.
