Biography from TheMovieDB

Erin Howie was born in Norwood, Massachusetts. She knew she wanted to be an actress when she was three because she loved story-telling. Howie graduated from Boston University in 2000 with a bachelor's degree in broadcast journalism. Howie moved out to Los Angeles in 2002, hoping to become a film and television actress. She had many jobs (selling cars, working as a bank teller, as a nanny, waitressing, selling pharmaceuticals... More jobs than Barbie, as one five-year old put it!) until she landed a guest starring role on Desperate Housewives in 2006. This led to other roles, including playing a zombie in Mindfire Entertainment's Dead and Deader. Howie's character, Liberty, turns into a zombie, eats the bartender and gets shot by Dean Cain in the movie. Erin has also often been hired to play Lindsay Lohan, as she did in a comedy sketch on Jay Leno's Tonight Show.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
