Synopsis

A family of three is traveling in space when they encounter a stranded spaceship. They manage to rescue one survivor, Grieco, who is in shock. However, when the father investigates the ship, he discovers that everyone aboard was murdered. Suddenly, the stranger abandons him on the damaged spaceship and begins to terrorize his wife and daughter. It is revealed that the stranger is actually an emotionally unstable android, programmed without morals, and he goes on a killing spree. The story concludes with the question of who will survive.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 17

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.
