Are you sure you meant "film" and not some common camcorder?
Beg and borrow anything at first.

Hi, I'm a college student and I'm interested in making a few short films. What is the best camera for this in the 500-600 dollar range? Thanks a lot!

What type of camcorder should I buy? That was what I meant, I'm willing to spend around 600 dollars.
My first one was under 400 bucks. If you need to do more pro work, see if you can rent. The newer HD cams would be nice, but closer to 999.
