Most Embarrassing Movie Moments When It Was Clear They Ran Out of Budget
These scenes are so confusing that one might think they accidentally switched to another movie.
Sometimes, having a low budget, filmmakers manage to allocate the resources properly while some movie creators apparently realize they are running out of a budget halfway through the shooting, which results in poor-quality and out of place scenes.
Let's rediscover some of the worst instances of that.
Submarine scene from Escape from L.A.
The iconic movie, despite gaining a great fan base in the long run, definitely had some budget limitations. The Submarine scene from the movie is the best example of it.
Poorly animated submarine with an even worse animated shark trying to attack the submarine. It made this scene look cartoonish back in the day, and even more so nowadays.
Teleportation from Dungeons & Dragons
After being teleported into a magical map, the two main characters swiftly return and engage in a discussion about their experiences in the captivating map world.
Surprisingly, the viewers are deprived of witnessing these events firsthand. Apparently, due to insufficient budget to show the map world, the filmmakers opted for an awkward recap conversation instead.
Invisible scorpion from The Rise of a Warrior
The Scorpion King prequel titled The Scorpion King: The Rise of a Warrior, features a scene where the young Scorpion King is supposed to battle a giant scorpion. However, strangely enough, the creature is depicted invisible, seemingly due to a possible lack of budget to create a good-quality CGI scorpion.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail's ending
The creators apparently ran out of money before they could film the final knights' battle, so instead we just witnessed everyone getting arrested by modern police.
It is no wonder, many people were confused with such a disappointing ending.
Blood Debts' explosion
Oh man, this one is legendary. If you haven't seen it, you might assume that there is something wrong with the explosion.
What is actually wrong is that the movie just ends with a freeze frame of the explosion and text informing the viewers that "Mark Collins, age 45, gave himself up to the authorities after the incident.
He is now serving a life sentence." The greatest ending in movie history so far.
