It seems everyone thinks rock-star Brad Stanley died of a heroin overdose. Everyone that is except for Brian. Don't let his guitar string salesman facade fool you. Brian used to play for the "B-movie Nightmares", but quit before they got big. Now the TV news says Brad OD'd, but Brian's going to find out what really happened. Was it a simple overdose or was there foul play? And if there was foul play, then who's to blame? A jaded drummer? A Korean Cowboy? A Satanic Ronald Reagan?! Brian asks "just one more thing" [ala Columbo] in his quest to seek out the truth. But no one said it'd be just another leisurely Sunday murder mystery. And it certainly won't be as polite.

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.
