Eating Raoul is a 1982 American black comedy film written, directed by and starring Paul Bartel with Mary Woronov, Robert Beltran, Ed Begley Jr., Buck Henry, and Susan Saiger.

The writers commissioned a single-issue comic book based on the film for promotion; it was created by underground comix creator Kim Deitch.
