The Mist
When a lethal, otherworldly mist engulfs their lakeside town, artist David Drayton must fight to rescue his wife and son from an unseen horror before the fog consumes everyone.
“Fear changes everything.”
Synopsis
After a violent storm, a thick cloud of mist descends upon a small town in Maine, trapping David Drayton and his five-year-old son inside a local grocery store along with other residents. They soon realize that the mist hides deadly dangers that threaten not only their lives but also their sense of reality.

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.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 3.2× 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).
