Mitsubayashi, who works for Iwasa Construction, watches a horror movie with his girlfriend Chizuko, then joins friends at a gathering. Kagamiko, a travel planner, organizes a horror tour with Yashiro, a psychic researcher. The group includes friends Hatoko, Saori, and Mitsurin, who’s engaged, along with Iwasa Construction’s president and managing director. The next day, Mitsubayashi’s body is found, drained of blood, and Lieutenant Amemori investigates. He learns Mitsubayashi had been near haunted Hirozawa Pond, where Yashiro shares ghost tales from the Heian period. Later, Chizuko dies in a similar, eerie manner. Ghosts tied to the Tengu of Atago-yama warn Kyoko, Hatoko, and Saori about strange events. Chizuko and Mitsubayashi’s deaths resemble vampire attacks, linked to the vengeful spirit Shuhime. Kagamiko, Hatoko, and Saori search Mitsubayashi’s ransacked apartment while being spied on. Hauntings intensify, revealing a spirit named Mayumi as Princess Akemi’s ghost.
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.
