The Witch
A desperate 17th‑century New England family battles a vengeful witch who has stolen their newborn for a deadly flying ointment, forcing them to risk everything in the haunted forest to save their child and survive.
“Evil takes many forms.”
Synopsis
In 1630, a farmer moves his family to a secluded piece of land on the edge of a forest, where strange and unsettling events begin to occur. As suspicion and paranoia grow, each family member's faith, loyalty, and love are tested in shocking ways.

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.
