A young Emirati lady is in desperate need, and asks her estranged father to help her, which causes ripples in the family, especially with her father's new wife. A spell is cast through a mutual party who goes to a shaman, to harm our heroin. She is under a lot of stress and starts going insane. She feels that she is haunted by demons and starts to see them everywhere. Her family puts her in a hospital to help with her condition, but the demons are getting stronger and more pervasive. The rest of her family starts to feel the demons' presence and decides to try to reverse the spell, which works, but is too late for our heroin, she sees them in her dreams and feels as though they are taking over her body.

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.
