Godzilla and Kong running in the latest Godzilla x Kong trailer.
Summary Most modern kaiju movies carry whopping nine-figure budgets, but one of the greatest entries in the genre was surprisingly cheap to produce. The kaiju genre originated in Japan and was created by Eiji Tsuburaya and Ishirō Honda with their groundbreaking 1954 masterpiece Godzilla. But since the spectacle of giant monsters smashing up cities crosses the language barrier, the popularity of the kaiju genre has spread across the world.
Matt Reeves’ Cloverfield Had A Budget Of $25 Million Cloverfield was produced for a fraction of the average Hollywood blockbuster Matt Reeves’ “found footage” kaiju thriller Cloverfield was produced for a budget of just $25 million . The movie is presented as footage recovered from a camcorder by the Department of Defense. It starts off with a group of friends throwing a farewell party for a man named Rob, who’s leaving New York City to take a new job in Japan.
How Cloverfield’s Budget Compares To The MonsterVerse Movies The cheapest MonsterVerse movie cost five times more than Cloverfield Close Cloverfield’s budget looks even smaller when it’s compared to what other modern kaiju movies have cost.
Cloverfield’s Lower Budget Made The Movie Better The “found footage” angle made Cloverfield feel unique Cloverfield’s lower budget made it a better and more unique movie. If it had a massive budget and showed the monster a lot more, then there would be nothing to distinguish it from other kaiju movies. But the “found footage” style of Cloverfield allowed it to do things that the genre had never done before.
