Fifteen years ago, a fortune-telling gypsy predicted death and chaos for the sleepy Scottish village of Donbrae. Zombies, evil, blood, anal weapons. An event too horrible to comprehend. Her reappearance at this year's Donbrae festival prompts disquiet among the few who know of her ominous forecast. Upon learning of her apparent mystic powers, local men Nigel and Malcolm seek out the gypsy to see if she's for real. The stories they are told about their own fates are almost too ridiculous to believe. But when her predictions start to come true, the men become increasingly alarmed.
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.
