I am updating the cast and crew for this Norwegian edition of Gremlins. In the previous contribution, it's almost a blueprint of IMDB so I had to change almost all cast to match the end credits. But I'm wondering about the socalled special vocal effects, should they be included in the cast? On the endcredits it is as follows

Main Cast
Stunt players (wich are not included)
Special vocal effects wich includes 9 names
and last Mushroom who plays Barney (the dog)

So should I include the SVE? and at last the dog?

Look at the poll of this topic and you can conclude that about half of the users will say yes and the other half will say no.

The cast list ends with 'Mushroom who plays Barney (the dog)'.  He, and everything above him...including stunts...gets included in the cast list.

Based on your description and Unicus' I would agree with Unicus, benty. I don't thin any of us would be terribly happy with it but...it sounds valid to me.

The way I see it is like the stunt players are added after maincast, like in other movies, stunts, helicopterpilots, medics etc etc, and then (without stating it) Also featuring: Special Vocal Effects, mushroom the dog. So I'm in doubt that the stuntplayers should be credited The dog is ok, since he got a role, and also the SVE since they're creating the voices, like in cartoons, you don't see the actors, but you hear their voice. Stuntplayers aren't "visually" if you know what I mean, you can't tell that was "Greg Gregson" doing stunt for Judge Reinhold i.e.. Hope you understand what I'm describing, I think it in Norwegian, and write it in English

I understand, but, we don't make those kinds of distinctions.  If they are included as part of the main cast list, they get included.  It isn't ideal, but it is what it is.

Benty:

Unicus is correct. I would have to see Credit screens BUT based on your description it is as Unicus answered, Some filmmakers do this...why...who knows not me, but they do and if they do we copy it. Sometimes you will Stunt Coordinators actually attached to the Cast List while their Stunt People are not.

IMO the stunt people should be ignored because they are separated from the cast list (and therefore they are not actors who play as they were stunt people), but I would include the special vocal effects and the dog.

If they are separated, you may be right. Are they separated here?

Wishfull thinking. If the stunt people are not separeted from the cast list, the may get included. Have to see the endcredits to see if there is a division between cast and stuntpeople.

I am updating the cast and crew for this Norwegian edition

could have different credits? but in your credits as there is a division between cast and stunt people  the last credit should be Jim McKrell  Lew Landers as I understand the rules.

Yes, from the "Dutch" version and I'm pretty sure this is the same in the "Norwergian" version because of this:

And I have seen modified credits where there is an alternate cut (e.g. for rating reasons) for a different locality.
