Produced for $10,000, Loanshark was made using handheld digital movie cameras and available light, with film look added in post-production.[2] The low-budget film was shot guerrilla filmmaking style among old Hollywood buildings and streets.[3]
Reception
Loanshark screened at several film festivals in 2000, including Silver Lake[4] and Melbourne Underground Film Festival.[5] Films In Review columnist David Del Valle called Loanshark "a gritty crime tale in the manner of Bad Lieutenant ".[6]
