Synopsis

Arkin narrowly escapes with his life from "The Collector" during an entrapment party where he captures the beautiful Elena and adds her to his "Collection." Rather than recovering from the trauma, Arkin is abruptly abducted from the hospital by mercenaries hired by Elena's wealthy father. He is then blackmailed into joining the mercenaries to locate The Collector's booby-trapped warehouse and rescue Elena.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

A crew of 260+ 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.
