Recreates the experience of Fuji-Q Highland amusement park's Senritsu Meikyu, reputed to be the world's greatest haunted house. The film recreates the sheer terror of the actual haunted house using theater-quality audio and footage from 10 cameras including self-shot footage. Direction and screenplay by Wakabayashi Yusuke, who has produced numerous films in Japan. Entries flood in for an event that adds new scares to the haunted house already that boasts of being the most terrifying ever. The challengers are invited to enter the amusement park after hours and head for their goal.
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.
