>budget: $2 million
Fucking how? It had tons of vehicles being destroyed, a building getting demolished, constant set changes and dozens of people being gruesomely maimed, 50 Sharlto Copleys on screen at the same time

no recognizable actors that's how
No big actors, the thing was filmed on like GoPros or something and there wasn't any real lighting or complicated equipment necessary. They basically hired a bunch of stuntmen and strapped cameras onto them.

It was made in Russia so they didn't have to worry about safety regulations or anything
Sharlto Copley said he nearly killed one of the stunt men

Hollywood doesn't know how to do budgets.
>Kevin Conran disputed this budget figure in a 2015 interview. “I take great issue with that [budget figure] personally and I’d like someone to show me where all that money went,” says Kevin. “I don’t support those numbers and I never have. We walked into Jon Avnet’s office that first day and he said, ‘What do you want for the production?’ and we said $3 million. We could have done a version of this film for $3 million. It would have been black-and-white and sans name actors…

Ah, that's a good point. There's probably some other stuff in there too that I don't know about that contributes to it being expensive.
