I Like Killing Flies (2004)

I Like Killing Flies is a sloppy documentary about a sloppy hole-in-the-wall restaurant in NYC. The helter skelter nature of the film is balanced by the interesting characters in front of the lens. The place is an institution in the neighborhood with a ton of personality. The movie documents the end of a 30+ year era, as they move into a new location. Prepare yourself for a ton of foul language—this family would make a sailor blush. This is not a place I’d want to eat or people I’d want to hang out with, but I found their story interesting to watch.
