10 Upcoming Movies With INSANE Budgets

And finally we have what's basically the polar opposite of Avengers: Doomsday - a film whose budget is insane not because of how eye-wateringly expensive it is, but how maddeningly low they got it.

A movie based on DC villain Clayface is imminently due to start shooting for release next September as part of James Gunn's DC Universe, and it's also set to be a rare superhero movie with an impressively svelte price tag.

As of late last year, Clayface was budgeted at just $40 million - a mere fraction of Gunn's recent $225 million Superman movie. 

It certainly makes sense to conceive a movie based on a more niche character with a smaller price in mind, but given the extensive transformation effects required to depict the character on screen, $40 million seems pretty damn tight.

Of course it's quite possible that the goopy clay effects will be incredibly limited and the film will focus mostly on the character's ability to shapeshift and assume the guise of anyone.

Either way, a $200 million Clayface movie would've been mind-bogglingly irresponsible, so giving it the budget of a well-made horror movie like, say, Zach Cregger's Weapons, seems totally appropriate - almost shockingly so.
