Amazon Women on the Moon
A late-night TV station accidentally broadcasts a bizarre 1950s sci-fi film filled with campy aliens, wild commercials, and absurd shorts, forcing its clueless staff to navigate the chaos of low-budget entertainment gone hilariously awry.
“See amazing thrills, spine-tingling chills, and something else that rhymes with "thrills".”
Synopsis
This satirical take on modern life and pop culture revolves around a television station that broadcasts a 1950s-style science fiction film, interspersed with a variety of outlandish commercials, quirky shorts, and bizarre specials. The show mocks some of the most absurd forms of entertainment ever created.

How many hands made this film
The scale of the collaboration
Principal cast & crew: 27
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.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.1× 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).
