Roadkill is a 1989 Canadian road film directed by Bruce McDonald, in his directorial film debut, from a screenplay written by Don McKellar. It stars Valerie Buhagiar as a woman tracking down a missing band across Northern Ontario, meeting a variety of eccentric characters along the way.

Production

The film was inspired by the Toronto rock band A Neon Rome. McDonald's original idea was to make a concert film following that band on tour; however, the band's lead singer, Neal Arbik, became disillusioned with the demands of touring to promote the band's debut album.

Instead, the film became a fictionalized portrayal of A Neon Rome, depicting a band on the verge of collapsing in a similar manner.
