In a house, on the top of a snowy mountain, the driver of a cable car (Claus Lein) hides a woman with mental disorders, Cloris, at his home. The situation is deteriorating their lives because of her psychic disorders, so Claus decides to resumes his old experiments to nurse her, since he was an accomplished neurosurgeon with revolutionary ideas. The extraordinary event of the explosion of the star Betelgeuse offers a unique opportunity to put the theories he had abandoned into practice. The scientist kidnaps a girl who looks like Cloris and tries to use her as a test subject in his experiments. After his success on the girl, Claus is now ready to operate his beloved Cloris, but the secrets he had buried long ago come to light turning reality upside down.

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.
