The Witches of Eastwick
Three discontented women in a sleepy town seize their chance at power when a charismatic stranger offers to make their deepest wishes come true, only to discover his gifts unleash dangerous forces that threaten to destroy everything they love.
“Three beautiful women. One lucky devil.”
Synopsis

A crew of 194+ 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.

✅ Made its money back — grossed 2.9× 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).
