Synopsis

A wild, zany spoof of American TV, complete with ""on-the-spot"" exposes, ""remote"" broadcasts, sensational interviews and a wide variety of commercial take-offs. Some of the topics covered in the film include ""Miracle Stoves,"" ""The Microwave De-Generation,"" ""Death-Breath,"", ""Saturday Night Specials,"" ""The Mexican Vegetable Genocide,"" ""Sheep Tips,"" ""Love Doll Dating Services,"" ""Cruising for Jailbait,"" ""Underwater Real Estate"" and others. The format of the movie closely resembles that of current popular ""magazine"" TV shows, featuring anchorpersons in studio settings and investigative reporters ""in the field.""

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 9

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
