Crumb is a 1994 documentary film about the noted underground comic artist Robert Crumb (R. Crumb) and his family. Directed by Terry Zwigoff, it won widespread acclaim, including the Grand Jury Prize at the Sundance Film Festival.

The tagline for the film is "Weird Sex, Obsession, Comic Books"; and while it is certainly full of all three, Crumb is considered a moving film about the experiences and characters of the Crumb family, particularly Robert Crumb's brothers, Maxon and Charles (his sisters declined to be interviewed).

Robert Crumb initially did not want to make the film, but eventually agreed to be profiled when Terry Zwigoff threatened to shoot himself. Crumb later told Zwigoff that he hated the film. Charles Crumb committed suicide a year after the film was completed.
