Synopsis

In the quiet little town of Allburg, friends Lucy and Cindy are on the verge of going away to college when they partake in a cleansing ritual by swimming in an abandoned church crypt. After Lucy accidentally drops her crucifix in the water, it drifts down and awakens the ancient vampire Czakyr, who becomes thirsty for Lucy's virgin blood.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 20

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.
