Nick shares an apartment with his two good friends. Nick, obsessed with horror films and serial killers, is always convinced he's in the middle of one. His two roommates have learned to live with his odd behavior and sometimes even find it amusing. When the apartment building gets a new handyman, "Breno", Nick's imagination goes into overdrive. His friends are intrigued by Breno's dark good looks and elusive demeanor while Nick is convinced they have a serial killer in their midst. It's not long before a series of misunderstandings, nightmares and mistaken identities send all four guys into a tailspin of darkness and classic horror violence. Who knew apartment life could be so dangerous?
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.
