After moving into a mysterious rental house in Amityville, New York, Artificial intelligence programmer Stuart Birdsall encounters an evil force so vile and deadly that it kills his wife, his friends, and strips him of his sanity. But for Stuart Birdsall, the worst is yet to come. Released from a mental institution, Stuart is immediately kidnapped by federal agents. It appears that the deadly evil that infected his program has now infected government systems. Stuart is given an offer he cannot refuse. With the help of a VIRTUAL REALITY headset, Stuart must enter a simulation. A manufactured labyrinth of evil; populated by a nightmarish collection of demons and creatures hell bent on the annihilation of the human race. He must destroy the demon in charge, or die trying!
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.
