Low Budget Films That Made Their Money Back

Blumhouse

If you have seen the haunted house movie Paranormal Activity, its actually probably not that surprising to find out that it only cost $15,000 to film. After all, it looks like it was shot on a home video camera, because it was! Believe it or not, the crew also filmed everything in less than a week! As you might imagine, the hit horror film went on to launch the career of its director, Oren Peli.

After its release, Paranormal Activity grossed an impressive $193 million at the box office. And, like all great and successful horror films, it earned a handful of less remarkable sequels.
