Ethan Samuel Dunlap is an American independent filmmaker. Born and raised in the South Shore of Massachusetts, Dunlap cut his teeth as a teenager making shorts and no-budget television series while working at SCTV, his hometown's public access TV channel. His first attempt at feature filmmaking was at age 15, when he directed 2011's THOSE GUYS IN THE HALL -- a 60 minute Clerks homage set in his high school. It was only screened for close friends. Still based in New England, Dunlap carved out a niche making regional micro-budget genre films -- shooting his films locally with a regular stable of actors and crew members. His first, 2019's SEE YOU NEXT WEEKEND, was an experimental coming-of-age thriller set in Scituate, filmed with a budget of $200. His second, the detective thriller WHO GOES THERE, is currently in post-production. His other works include the experimental science fiction noir short HOP, several music videos, and A BEACH IN NEW ENGLAND -- a ground-up re-cut of his first feature.

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.
