gang bang tapes? Don't tell me... someone replaced the lubricant with super glue
I'd imagine a film with the highest death count would be the Exorcist. I'm aware from watching the documentries on the DVD that many of the production team snuffed it

Poltergeist has had quite a few fatalites amongst cast and crew. The twighlight zone also had 2 actors killed when a helicopter fell on them.

I'm letting this one go without hints, but if you know where to check, you'll find the answer.=)

Some background for "The Exorcist"
The Movie, the problems, the story behind the scenes.
This Warner Bros. release came out late in 1973. It won two Academy Awards for "Best Sound" and "Best Adapted Screenplay". It was also up for 10 other nominations that it failed to win. The movie made a comfortable $232 million, not to mention video sales, merchandise, etc. It is currently held at #36 on the highest grossing films of all time list. (#9 adjusted gross) The film was directed by William Friedkin, it starred Linda Blaire as Regan, Ellen Burstyn as Regan's mother, Jason Miller as Father Karras, and Max Von Sydow as Father Merrin, the Exorcist himself. Even now, 30 years later, it is still considered one of the most terrifying movies ever made.
The urban legends about what went on behind the scenes of "The Exorcist" are nearly as legendary as the film itself. Seen as a "Hex Film" due to the accidental deaths, fires on set, and even mental breakdowns of the leading lady, Linda Blair. Some would go as far as to say that a demon was on set, waiting, watching, to make its move and cause more havoc. The rumours are honestly plentiful. Some say that anywhere between four to nine people died during the 15-month production. Jack McGowen just finished filming his small part when he died of a heart attack. Another rumour is that the man that Regan said would "die up there" during her mother's dinner party, was "accidentally" killed while filming. Other deaths were that of Max Von Sydow's brother and Linda Blair's grandfather. A crewmember that refrigerated the bedroom for the exorcism scenes, a night watchman for the set, and a cameraman's newborn child can be added to the list of phenomenal deaths as well. There were also notable spurts of strange behaviour and panic from cast and crew while filming. The future interviews with the makers of "The Exorcist" has had them admit that filming the movie was a creepy experience, and that they were more than a little jumpy. The biggest rumour of them all was the one about the set catching fire one night when no one was there. Apparently it still remains a mystery to this day what caused the fire, and it is thankful that no one was hurt. However keep in mind, a lot of these have been confirmed as merely rumours. Not only did the strange things happen on set, there were plenty more to come when the film was released. Screenings were filled with people vomiting, fainting, and breaking into hysterics. "The Exorcist" has proven to have some of the strangest audience reactions of all time. Mysteriously the death tolls rose in the areas surrounding Georgetown after the movie's release. Heart attacks were recorded all over the world during premiere screenings and a lightning strike destroyed a 400-year-old cross during the Italian premiere at the Metropolitan Theatre in Rome. Keep in mind that nothing was recorded after the 2000 re-release of the film. Linda Blair hasn't spoken much about her breakdown. Some interviews suggest that she blames her own "workaholic" tendencies. It is doubtful that it was related to any supernatural phenomenon. Other "cursed" movies include "MacBeth", "Poltergeist", "Rosemary's Baby", "Twilight Zone", and of course, "The Crow", all of these movies have their own little reasons for being "hexed".

Yeah, if I had to say, the one I'd vote for would be Excorcist too
Satan, can you at least say if it's a horror film or not?
PLEASE
