Blood: The Last Vampire

Synopsis

Saya appears to be a striking 16-year-old, but beneath that youthful exterior lies the tormented soul of a 400-year-old "halfling." Born to a human father and a vampire mother, she has spent centuries as a solitary figure, driven by an obsession to use her samurai skills to eradicate vampires. Throughout this time, she has been aware of the paradox that she, too, can only survive by consuming blood, just like those she hunts.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 23

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.

Box Office

2009 · Box office

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.2× 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).
