Synopsis

Elliot Richards, a socially awkward IT worker, is granted seven wishes to win the affection of the girl of his dreams after encountering a seductive Satan. The condition is the eventual cost of his soul. Among his wishes are becoming a 7-foot basketball star, a wealthy and powerful man, and a sensitive, caring guy. However, as expected, the Devil adds her own subtle twists to each of his fantasies.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 288+ credited

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 1.9× 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).
