In a small town in an unknown location, two criminal organizations share their territory. The bosses "Mango Red" and "Sean Mason" don't particularly like each other, but they don't get in each other's way when it comes to business. -However, in the last few weeks several small fish working for Red have been killed and it seems to be Mason's handwriting. When they meet, the two become enemies and a bloody gang war begins. The bosses' professional killers cause great damage to the other organization. The gangs weaken each other and fight to the death, but there is actually a very nasty plan behind it by a corrupt cop and one of Mason's killers and the pimp Victor Vortec still has a huge bone to pick with Red's gang...

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.
