Beast with a Budget

About This Movie

So, 'Beast with a Budget' is this quirky little gem from 2019 - a fascinating blend of comedy, horror, and thriller elements. It's not often you see a mockumentary that dives into the chaotic world of indie filmmaking, but here we are. The pacing has this wild energy that mirrors the filmmaker's frantic quest for Oscar glory, which is as much a comedy of errors as it is a tense thriller at times. The performances from the ensemble cast are genuinely entertaining, with each character adding their own weird charm. And there’s some pretty clever practical effects that pop up, adding to the overall ridiculousness of the situations. It’s the kind of film that captures the chaotic spirit of indie productions, making for a fun watch.
