Synopsis

In 2009, exground filmfest presented Jörg Buttgereit's picturized stage play “Captain Berlin vs. Hitler”. Now he had actors speak his radio play in a theater and then filmed it. A re-enactment of an Italian horror film of the 1980s. A stranger steals the hearts of corpses from a NY morgue. Detective Jack Romero and anthropologist Andrea Spinell are to solve the case of ritual mutilations. Their investigation leads them to a tribe of cannibals on an island in the Pacific. There Dr. Fulci pursues to turn the natives into aboulic zombies. Buttgereit's media transfer touches the video revolution and high time of splatter aesthetics as well as cannibal- and zombie themes.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

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.
