Was The Warriors low budget?

Once Were Warriors was, and that's a pretty good film if you can bear the dark subject matter.

They Live.

Submarine
Sideways

What constitutes as low budget?

Seen plenty of suggestions that cost a fair bit of cash. Obviously not hollywood levels but hardly low budget.

Clerks is the best shout I've seen that cost like 3ok in dollars.

All under £10 million. Most expensive 28 Days Later at £8 million. Nothing compared to some budgets these days. Obviously some in the list are more low budget than others, but yeah, a few are over 5 million.

 

[The Raven]

Hunt for the Wilderpeople. Brilliantly funny new Zealand film.


Utter classic

Cracking film. Recommended to me by @RestlessNatives .

The skuk life chose us.

Yeah the kiwis usually do the odd canny film, like black sheep.

Aye. I suppose that's low budget these days. I always think more tiny budget.
