Synopsis

Jason Gedrick and a small group of Marines find themselves stranded in the remote Afghan desert. Their concerns, however, extend beyond the Taliban, as they must also contend with giant creatures reminiscent of those from *Tremors*. Surprisingly, these large worms become a sort of ally, proving more effective against the Taliban than the Marines themselves. However, battling such enemies is not part of their standard training.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

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.
