Sin City: A Dame to Kill For

A memory‑less drifter awakens amid dead bodies and must piece together the night’s horrors, hunting down a gang of privileged frat boys who torched a homeless man—only to discover his own dark ties to the ruthless underworld of The Projects as he fights for vengeance and survival.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 62+ credited

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.

📉 Underperformed — grossed 0.6× 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).
