A better analogy would be on the lines of "Interstate 60: Tales of the Road" (2002), or "Atlas Shrugged - Part 1" (2011), both of which were made outside of the hegemony of Hollywood, had good production quality and w/ a number of familiar faces in various roles.
Agree with Holiday and stevexyz. It would have to be an independent and self funded film. And if so, you'd have to hit a home run, something on the order of Blair Witch Project.
