Loathe Thy Neighbor is a 2025 Canadian comedy drama film directed by Sergio Navarretta from a screenplay written by Christian Majewski. The film stars Lauren Holly and Brennan Clost. The story focuses on a young man who inherits a farm, and runs into conflict with his neighbor.

Filming took place on a farm in Arran-Elderslie, Bruce County in 2023.

According to interviews with Clost and Holly, the film was conceived, written, cast, and shot in just seven weeks - a turnaround almost unheard of in the industry, where projects typically undergo months or even years of development before casting or production.

Loathe Thy Neighbor had an advance screening on August 25 in Owen Sound, and then received a full release on August 29, 2025.
