This is somewhat useless but interesting none the less. I did a inflation calculation with the Phantasm(s) budget(s). I recieved some of my budget information from Wikipedia so it might be shady information. Here it is:
Phantasm I Budget in 1978: $400,000.00* Phantasm I Budget with inflation: $1,353,989.50
Phantasm II Budget in 1988: $3,000,000.00 Phantasm II Budget with inflation: $5,407,989.37
Phantasm III Budget in 1993: $2,500,000.00 Phantasm III Budget with inflation: $3,651,716.19
Phantasm IV Budget in 1998: $600,000.00* Phantasm IV Budget with inflation: $772,398.87
The inflation figures are based on 2007. I should have based P2's budget on 1987 and P4's budget on 1997, since I believe that is the year they were filmed in. You get the point either way. I personally was shocked to see the 2.5 million dollar budget for P3, but I suppose that the effects justify that (the sphere barrell roll comes to mind).
*These budget figures were based on numbers quoted in the Phantasmagoria documentary.
