Drawing Flies

Drawing Flies is a 1996 comedy film from Kevin Smith's View Askew Productions.

It was written, directed, and edited by filmmakers Malcolm Ingram and Matt Gissing, with financial backing from Smith and Scott Mosier.

After they get cut off welfare, Donner (Jason Lee) leads four of his jobless, penniless roommates spend their last remaining money on a cover charge for a party and get high.

But to make matters worse, they uncover all kinds of bizarre and dangerous activity as they wander through the woods in search of not only Bigfoot himself but any hope of a future.

While making Mallrats, Kevin Smith met Canadian Film Threat journalist Malcolm Ingram and his friend Matt Gissing; the three decided to make Drawing Flies, the title of which is based on a Soundgarden song from the album Badmotorfinger.
