Synopsis

A mysterious new priest arrives in town to stay with fellow clergy members Erik Estrada and Jan-Michael Vincent. Unbeknownst to them, this fierce priest is highly skilled in martial arts, armed with crucifix blades and a gold handgun featuring a cross on the handle. In a troubled neighborhood, he begins targeting and eliminating local drug dealers. He later meets the unstable Don Stroud in a confessional, where Stroud claims to be a blood-sucking, skull-stealing serial killer known as a "vampire." The priest then encounters a young girl who experiences visions of Stroud's violent acts. When Stroud kidnaps her, the priest declares, "Open the gates of Hell! For I am the right hand of God!!!" and heads into his most dangerous confrontation yet.

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.
