The document compares the institutions behind the low-budget film Insidious and the high-budget film Dark Shadows. It finds that Warner Brothers, which produced Dark Shadows, is a major studio with a large budget of $150 million, while the smaller Film District produced Insidious for only $1.5 million. However, Insidious went on to make $97 million at the box office, showing that a smaller company can still find success with a low-budget film. While Warner Brothers is a globally renowned producer of blockbusters like Harry Potter, Film District's breakout hit with Insidious helped establish it as a notable new player in the film industry as well.
