SPOILER well The Village benefits from the fact that the monsters were in fact just the other characters in rubber masks. Practical effects would have been entirely accurate anyway, no VFX required. I expect that money was mostly spent on color correction and removing phone lines and such.

VFX was Matte shots and wire removal, according to the doc.

And color correction is listed as its own line item (see “DI”).
