budget [according to IMDB]: $130K
So far its made $14.5M

I think there will be many more investors out there for [our] indie DV projects now!
Great Job!
 
Re: Open Water [$figures$] Looks REALLY Good

..there always has been plenty of investors.. especially since the blair witch project . the real issue is that there is not really that many good indy films that deserve to actually be widely distributed. :-/

..but these days, the real money makers are either low budget indies that make big ROI or big budget action that makes decent ROI over what was spent to make it. all the middle of the road films dont make too much over their own production budget anymore. so there is more of an eye on the indy market than before i would say.

I wobder what LIONS GATE paid them for the rights and if they are getting any points or residuals?
 
Re: Open Water [$figures$] Looks REALLY Good

I think Lions Gate paid 2.5 million for the film.

And I seriously doubt they'd get any points, but what do I know :P

I guess you dont care when they drop 2.5 on you and most likely offers from other production companies come pouring in. I could live with 2.5.
