  • The Passenger (2023) (absolutely loved this movie)

  • Mars Express (2023) (this was surprisingly far better than it had any right to be)

  • The Roundup (2022) (the entire series of The Roundup is excellent and worth a watch)

  • Project Wolf Hunting (2022) (ultra gory and violent, but the premise is wild and cool. Basically a mutant Frankenstein Terminator vs psycho murderous criminals vs hardened violent cops)

  • Corner Office (2022) (this is one of those weird, ironic, dystopian comedies. I love movies like this -- kind of like a cross between Primer + Office Space + Brazil, but your mileage may vary)

  • Hunt (2022) (superb espionage thriller with tons of twists and turns)

  • The Killer (2022) (hard-boiled, masculine, no-nonsense action-thriller)

  • The Pig, The Snake, And The Pigeon (2023) (this one is a trip; no spoilers here; easy 9/10 film. One of the best films I've seen in the last decade. )

none of them sound familiar, small budget/indie?

Corner Office and The Passenger are indie/small budget, but The Passenger doesn't really feel small budget -- it definitely has this kind of horror, unpredictable vibe to it where you're not really sure what's going to happen next. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I would liken it to movies like the first Rampage (from Uwe Boll, which is actually a really good movie), Weapons (with Paul Dano) or a bit of Hell or High Water.

As for the rest? Definitely not low budget, but I suppose if you're in the U.S., then they would be considered foreign.

Mars Express is French, but it's a really cool film, definitely not low budget. Sci-fi detective film with some twists you will never see coming.

Hunt is pretty big budget but is South Korean, along with The Killer, and The Roundup Series.

Can't remember which country Project Wolf Hunting was from, either South Korea or Indonesia, definitely doesn't feel low budget but then again they know how to stretch a dollar in their films.

I think The Pig, The Snake, and The Pigeon is an indie film? The director usually makes low-budget but very good movies out of southeast Asia. But it doesn't feel like it's low-budget at all, because there's quite a bit of travelling involved. It feels big and expansive; it's a very contemplative film despite some extreme violence. Easily the one that kind of took me by surprise the most out of the list (that and Mars Express).
