Microbudget B-movie William Gibson, in the best way.

an honest to god masterpiece. a movie where very little happens but it feels tense and momentous for its entire run.

also a movie to be studied because it achieves so much with so little -- microbudget training ground

The beautiful thing about indie microbudget filmmaking is that deadlines are flexible.

You don’t HAVE to rush and make a film by a certain day to try and meet a certain capitalist goal.

Being indie gives you the luxury of taking your time with your art.

Back in October, Terror Vision Records & Video & Graveface published my first book, HAND-HELD HELL: THE OUTBREAK OF HOMEMADE HORROR, which looks at the boom of amateur SOV/8mm horror in the 80s/90s and its influence on modern microbudget horror. terror-vision.com/store/hand-hel…

Getting very itchy to start in on making another microbudget indie. This time I’d have to raise all the money (since I have no more money.) Do we think twitter as a crowdfunding hub is dead?

RIVER (🇯🇵 JP 2023) Really fun and imaginative microbudget time loop outing. Well written; it cleverly adds a little bit more plot on every repeat. Lots of nifty two minute takes and nimble camerawork. Charming Sci-Fi full of enjoyable performances.

Marty Lang Quick question: Does your new book cover the history of microbudget filmmaking?

Went out to the theater for a random 4:20pm screening of a stoner comedy from the Philippines and ended up really delighted by and in love with what I saw. Wish more microbudget features were this irreverent and playful.

The Michigan indie film scene is one of the US's richest and most creatively diverse - with Potrykus on the vanguard of visionaries there still making true microbudget mindfucks with local crew and talent. Any new work by him is major. Smart programming, Tribeca

A perfect example of what a microbudget can be. MONSTERS gives us this Unheralded Scene --> ow.ly/V4pM30cyT2Z #scriptchat

Time to be honest.

Every single month bar two my job has fucked up my paycheck.

I now have just over £500 this month to pay all my bills and feed the cats. I will simply have to microbudget eating to survive.

I am angry and upset. I shouldn't have to keep fighting this.
