A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Jared Hacker is a Brooklyn-based producer originally from Allentown, PA (this is the point where someone typically makes a Billy Joel reference to him). He has produced television shows for MTV, truTV, Comedy Central, A&E, History Channel, PBS, TLC, Animal Planet, as well as a variety of content for brands such as Jameson Whiskey, Avion Tequila, & Martell Cognac. He is a self-proclaimed Jared-Of-All-Trades also dabbling in photography, editing, graphic design, and acting. In 2016, he appeared as a lead actor in the indie horror feature "Hell House, LLC” and then reprised his role in 2019 for the final movie in the trilogy, "Hell House LLC 3: Lake of Fire,” both of which are currently streaming on Amazon Prime, iTunes, Shudder, and other platforms. Prior to Pandemia, he could also be seen performing comedy around NYC with his long-running improv group Out of the Woods or his sketch/improv group Scorpion Bowl. He's left-handed, plays the drums right-handed (because that's just the world we live in), and has never refused a slice of pizza.

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.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
