For those don't know Neil Breen. He is known for using VHS camcorder and a CT Scanner made out of paper in his movies.

Primer, maybe? Very good acting, crazy but great plot, good cinematography, but filmed on a budget of $7,000 with deliberately lower res cameras.

Also Pi was also a well acted movie but filmed to look kind of low res.

    Great answers i love pi and primer didn't think of them as VHS level as the black and white and documentary style hide the low budget cameras well.

    Clerks? Shot in black and white because the convenience store where they were shooting had lighting that gave everything a weird green color.

    Primer. Whole thing done by 2 guys, rented camera, like $10k budget. Brilliant movie.

    Inland Empire by David Lynch. Might be a bit of a stretch given that Lynch certainly had the means to film it better, but chose to use a Sony handheld cam for aesthetic reasons.

    Also Primer, called the most accurate time-travel movie ever made. Whole thing looks like a 15 year old YT video

    Maybe not quite that bad, but A Boy and His Dog was a brilliant, dark, sci-fi movie with almost no budget.
