Some of the best movies can come out of extreme pressure.

Hey, guys, it's Phoebe with Watch Mojo.

Today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 Insane ways.

Movies try to save money.

The Americans are fools.

I offered my surfaces, They refuse, said at the East.

Now they can both pay.

We're taking a look at movies where directors were forced to deal with low budgets and reduced costs.

Let's get to it course heading Captain Captain's discretion.

If you like what you're hearing, be sure to check out the full song at the link below Number 10 taking from an existing TV show.

Psycho Boy's best friend is his mother.

A trip to the Bates Motel saw visitors disappear, left and right in the Alfred Hitchcock classic Psycho.

Hitchcock was left to finance the film himself and shoot back at Universal, where he also made Alfred Hitchcock presents for TV.

In an effort to keep costs low, he recycled much of that show's production crew and reportedly approached the movie like an episode.

I was just a plain simple baby sitting, huh?

Look at me now, Hitchcock additionally tooken up front, cut on pay to get Paramount to distribute the film and instead opted for a larger part of the back end profits.

Even the choice to film in Black and White was itself done, in part to trim expenses.

But given the millions that Psycho earned at the box office, Hitchcock made all the right moves.

I hope they are watching.

They'll see they'll see, and they'll know their say.

She wouldn't even harm a number nine Cheap sets, Doctor.

No look.

James Bond's first official film outing took him into the surprisingly charming layer of the evil doctor.

No, but as the bond franchise was still new, Onley 1% of its already meager $1 million budget was allocated.

Two sets knows room still appeared stylish due to production designer Ken Adam, who mixed in cheap vintage pieces to create an eclectic aesthetic.

Adam was also tasked with copying a stolen Goya painting for no to possess just to enhance the villains aura of power.

Stock footage of tiny fish was magnified to save money, which was itself written in as a display of nose unusual persona.

You were wondering what it called So given that leader Bond films received huge budgets for set pieces alone.

Doctor knows smooth look was an impressive achievement.

Number eight Improvised Makeup Dallas Buyers Club.

This movie's funding was slashed right before filming started, leaving just a few 100 or so dollars to transform Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto into ill patients.

You've tested positive for HIV, which is the virus that causes AIDS makeup had Robin Mathews claimed.

Bones and veins had to be highlighted repeatedly in place of prosthetics.

Rashes were created with grits and other foods to drive costs down more, and those were reportedly donated by Matthew's mother.

Situation was dire enough that a producer reportedly pitched in their own money to feed crew members.

Matthews.

Hard work paid off, however, as Dallas Buyers Club won the makeup Oscar that same year.

God damn people are dying and you're all up there, afraid that we're gonna find an alternative with that Number.

Seven No extras.

Rocky in the midst of Rocky Balboa's journey to become a famous boxer, he asked Adrian out on a date.

Initially, this scene was set to occur in either a restaurant or an ice rink packed with skaters.

But is the large amount of extras proved to be an expensive choice.

It was suggested to set the moment.

After hours with Rocky and Adrian alone, the camera focused on them for an intimate conversation.

I asked you a question, Jim.

Absolutely.

Why do you want to fight?

Because I can't stand her debts.

Rockies access to the closed rink also helped him appear more dedicated to impressing Adrian.

The decision solidified their relationship so that it was all the more emotional as Rocky called her in for the finale Number six crashing on the producer's couch.

The purge.

This is not a test.

This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the annual purge sanctioned by the U.

S.

Government.

The home invasion terror of the purge was touch and go in the financing department, but producer Jason Bluhm secured interest in a low budget approach to the story and filmed it in a house rather than the streets.

Ethan Hawke in crew members were asked to wave larger paychecks and instead opt for part of the profits.

Because it works.

You don't remember how bad it wasjust arly.

The poverty, all the crime this night saved our country.

Hawk also skipped on accommodations and slept on his friend Bluhm Sofa to reduce the cost of production.

The home setting put the danger in a place that viewers understood and grounded.

Ah, high concept plot, five films and a TV show later plums.

Early penny pinching has allowed the purge to get more ambitious.

Number five.

The entire production Monsters Edwards Monsters took viewers down a desolate Mexico filled with infectious aliens, but less than $500,000 was allocated to achieve this futuristic vision.

This force director Gareth Edwards to use mostly consumer level equipment and editing software, which reportedly cost only about $15,000.

What happened?

No, if you ask me this six second air strength.

Random locals were recruited as extras, while the crew was just four people.

Edwards even ended up serving as the cinematographer and production designer, while he added all the visual effects himself on a laptop.

Despite the meager resources, monsters still looked way better than movies with 10 times the budget number four.

Changing up the Chase Jurassic Park.

It's T.

Rex chases down a car of patrons after a dinosaur theme park has its beast set loose.

The moment wasn't originally in Jurassic Park as the book actually saw the protagonists fleeing the wrecks in a raft.

Though the scene was story boarded and reportedly partially filmed, it was cut due to the very large costs it would have incurred.

Come on, come on, We got to get out of here.

Get in here.

Now, Now!

Right now on And even money aside, it was also unclear how a rafting chase with a massive dinosaur would have looked with their special effects.

This lead to adapting the scene with a Jeep which has helped Jurassic Park hold up visually throughout the years.

Number three Recycling footage.

Star Trek to the wrath of Khan.

Three years on from their first film outing, the crew of the USS Enterprise were pitted against an intergalactic villain from him.

But the wrath of Khan was a sequel with a reduced budget.

So the crew, the film crew that is, was forced to cut corners wherever they could.

The set of cons, U.

S s Reliant was recycled from the enterprise, much like several space stations and miniatures were reused from Star Trek.

The motion picture costumes were too costly to throw out, so many were either died or trim to look new.

Worst of all was the docking sequence, which essentially just re edited shots directly from the first film.

The wrath of Khan was celebrated.

It was a testament to the strong designs of the original movie Mom Prosper Number two.

Replacing characters Before filming Deadpool Wade Wilson was dying from cancer when an experiment turned him into an invincible but unhinged mutant.

Okay, let's pro con this superhero thing.

This X Men spin off was already facing minimal financing, but it faced additional $1,000,000 cuts right before it was Greenland.

God damn it, do the seal fashion way with two swords.

Maximum reduced cash meant that preferred characters like Garrison Cane and Wire were unable to be featured.

Defeated by the budget and otherwise strange cast of characters did allow for plenty of meta jokes, which was classic deadpool humor.

And you are Negus, sonic teenage warhead, mega sonic teenage What the shit?

That's the coolest name ever, and the lack of funds for a massive gunfight finale was salvaged by making front of Wade's own stupidity.

So by playing the self aware voice of their own source material, Deadpool turned major setbacks into opportunities.

Gonna wait out here?

Okay?

It's a big house.

It's funny that I only ever see two of you.

It's almost like the studio couldn't afford another X Man.

Number one Shooting without permission The Terminator, a time traveling robot assassin sounded like a low budget movie plot, so director James Cameron was given the funds to match for the Terminator.

Luckily, Cameron had learned tricks from his previous cheap films, so he decided to avoid paying for film permits.

Things prompted a lot of nighttime filming to avoid detection.

Mercury vapor streetlights were sought out by the crew to reduce electrical costs for the moonlight shoots.

Cameron actually had to lie about studying at U.

C.

L.

A.

When a cop busted him and another scene had Arnold Schwarzenegger punch in a real car window just to get a shot.

All the work arounds give the Terminator, a dark and gritty look which stays terrifying all these years later.

What did he just say?

He said, There's a storm coming.

E no.
