Jeepers Creepers
A college student and her brother uncover a decades-old urban legend turned nightmare when they stumble upon a killer and his horrifying secret buried beneath an abandoned church.
“What's eating you?”
Synopsis
On a remote country highway, two teenagers traveling home are nearly forced off the road by a man in a damaged truck. Later, they witness him pushing what seems to be a body into a sewer pipe.

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 hit — grossed 5.9× 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).
