Faking a Murderer is a Canadian mockumentary film, directed by Stuart Stone and released in 2020. An affectionate parody of the true crime genre, the film stars Stone and his filmmaking partner and brother-in-law Adam Rodness as themselves, trying to make a true crime documentary about their efforts to track down David Stoner, a man they have found seemingly confessing to murders in a series of bloody internet videos.At the outset of the project, Stone and Rodness made a number of short videos with actor Tony Nappo playing David Stoner in grisly, bloody scenarios that were deliberately ambiguous about whether they represented murders or not, and posted them to a private YouTube channel. From there, they proceeded to pitch the project as if the videos were real, in order to get genuine unscripted reactions out of their friends and family, the police, and executives for Breakthrough Entertainment and Hollywood Suite; only once they're out on Stoner's trail do fictionalized scenes, scripted and performed by actors, begin to enter the narrative.

The film premiered on October 14, 2020, on Hollywood Suite, as part of the channel's Shocktober lineup of Hallowe'en horror programming. It screened at various international horror film festivals, and was released to international video on demand platforms, in 2021.
