A Perfect Getaway
Newlywed couple Cliff and Cydney seek a romantic Hawaiian getaway, only to discover they're being hunted by a murderous pair lurking in the island’s idyllic wilderness.
“Welcome to paradise. Enter at your own risk.”
Synopsis
Cliff and Cydney, newlyweds on their honeymoon, travel to the tropical islands of Hawaii. During their journey through the scenic countryside, they meet Kale and Cleo, two unhappy hitchhikers, as well as Nick and Gina, two spirited and enthusiastic guides who assist them through the lush jungle. The beautiful waterfalls and mountainous landscapes soon turn ominous when the couple learns of a recent murder in the area. They soon realize they are being followed by individuals who suspiciously match the description of the killers.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 25
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.

⚖️ Fell short of break-even — grossed 1.6× its budget
Why 2.5×?
Cinemas keep roughly half of every ticket sold, and a wide release’s marketing often costs about as much again as the film — so a movie needs to gross around 2.5× its production budget just to break even theatrically. It’s a rule of thumb, not the studio’s ledger (home video and streaming come later).
