Monsters has been causing some giant waves within the film industry. Made on only £500,000, shot by only two people and pieced together by a minuscule crew, it's a testament to the power of low budget film making during a period when everyone is keeping an eye on their wallets. Director Gareth Edwards proudly uses his talent for visual effects and expert eye for cutting corners here to create this science fiction movie that proves you can still achieve stunning visuals with just a handful of cash. All you need is a good imagination.
