Edit
Trivia While the box-office records of the 1940s are difficult to research--especially concerning exploitation films, such as this one--this film is generally considered to be the top-grossing picture of 1947 and may well be the top-grossing exploitation picture of all time, with an estimated gross in excess of $100 million. Producer Kroger Babb said that each investor got back $63,000 for each $1000 he invested in the film. See more »
