Successful films with $200-400k budgets

[Patryk_Rebisz]

Besides "Napoleon Dynamite" (budgeted at $400k) what other films are there with similar budget that were successful?

This one cost about $100K (back in the 70's) and reportedly made over a million. The distributor made the money, the filmmakers didn't do so well.

Chasing Amy grossed $12MM and cost about $250K.

Good call David, any other?

Like Crazy came out recently, I think the budget was around $250k and it did pretty well.

If you have IMDBPRO you can do a search by budget range, year, genre and get a lot the information you're looking for. Only issue is that a lot of the lower budget films don't list the actual budget so they aren't "pre-judged".
