Krista (Megan Davis), a cocktail waitress, and Dean, her slacker boyfriend, have plans to spend some time alone together. That is until Dean hears a disturbing voice mail message from his roommate Micah which forces the couple to abandon their weekend getaway to look for him instead. Ominously, when they follow Micah's trail, the remote, desert town reveals no trace of him. As the mystery deepens, the young couple comes face-to-face with their worst nightmares (The Grimm). And learn the hard way that not all nightmares end when you wake up. - (They are to be offered up as sacrifice to a sinister force, not of this world)
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.
