Hundreds of Beavers is a 2022 American slapstick comedy film directed by Mike Cheslik and written by Cheslik and Ryland Tews. It was inspired by the slapstick comedy of 1920s and 1930s artists. The film stars Tews as an applejack maker in a conflict with beavers, trying to win the hand of a merchant's daughter.[3][4]
Cheslik and Tews, who previously collaborated on multiple projects, developed the idea for Hundreds of Beavers in October 2018. The film was shot in rural Wisconsin and Michigan across twelve weeks in the winter of 2019 and 2020. Editing and post-production was completed by 2022.
Hundreds of Beavers premiered at Fantastic Fest on September 29, 2022, and has received critical acclaim. The film was self-distributed and received a video on demand release on April 15, 2024.
