Sarah, a young girl living in the dark shadow of her past, could never forget the tragedy that struck when she was in middle school—her mother died in a motorcycle accident. Since then, guilt had haunted her every step, trapping her in endless regret. Hoping to atone for her perceived sins, Sarah repeatedly tried to find ways to communicate with her mother’s spirit, but all her attempts ended in failure. One day, however, a mysterious man—also a student at the same university—offered her a secret method said to allow her to meet her mother in another realm. Without hesitation, Sarah followed the instructions. But from that moment on, her life turned into a nightmare. Supernatural terrors began to haunt her days, pulling Sarah into a vortex of mystery far darker and more dangerous than anything she had ever imagined.

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.
