The movie, based on myths that surround 99 Mansion Nibong Tebal, focuses on the titular home of Tengku Izzudin Shah, who lived there with his wife and son. Unfortunately, his family members all mysteriously died. Before he himself later passed away, he asked for his house to be turned into a hospital. However, the house has now been left abandoned for 30 years. Hisyam, a contractor, offers to do restoration work on it and his offer is accepted by Putera Shah's firm. Together, the two of them, along with Rafael and Camelia, visit the house and set up camp near it for the night. That is when they begin experiencing strange and frightening occurrences at the house.
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.
