D' Aswang Slayerz is a horror comedy story of Paps (Mel Martinez) and his niece Eve (Athalia Badere) suddenly being informed that they come from a family of "Aswang Slayers". The messenger La Niña (Magdalena Fox) tells them that their hometown in the province is being destroyed by the aswangs and that only Paps and Eve can save the town from the Aswangs. Faced by so much financial burdens in the city, Paps and Eve together with their friend Logan ( GJ Dorado ) decide to join La Niña in the province. This is where their adventure or should we say misadventures begin. They are given amulets to protect themselves and undergo physical training to fight the aswangs. The Queen Aswang (Sharmaine Arnaiz) is informed of the Slayers' arrival in the province and is determined to bring them down. With the help of the Queens right hand man Troy ( Lester Tolentino) Paps falls in love with him but Eve is not happy about it. She is determined to prove that Troy is one of the aswangs.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
