Legend has it that hundreds of years ago, the world was plagued by a scourge – a giant snake with nine heads and a golden body. Often transforming into a woman as beautiful as a celestial fairy, Hydra wreaked havoc on the world and called herself Lady Golden Snake. People were terrified until Master Nan Hua appeared. He defeated the Hydra, beheaded her and trapped her immortal spirit in a divine sword. Hundreds of years later, a mysterious demon broke into the Demonslayer's Hall, where the sword with the Golden Snake's spirit was kept, and stole the sacred relic. The young demoness Qu Ling was tasked with retrieving the sword, but due to her weak spiritual power, she was unable to resist the Golden Serpent and decided to seek the help of Bian Xiaoya, a demon hunter. Together they embark on a journey to retrieve the divine sword and save the world from the Hydra's second coming.

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.
