A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Randy S Kirk fell in love with movies at an early age. He would sneak out at night and ride his bike down to the local drive in and sit out side the fence and get lost in the movie on the giant screen. This started at age seven and his love of film continues to grow. He has written several full length features, shorts and a T.V. Pilot. He loves the entire process of bringing what he has written to life and the collaborative effort of bringing a scene to life. Randy has created a production company with his son Ryan Kirk called "One Inch Punch Productions" and Randy also has a film company called "Whole Village Moving Pictures". The latter comes from his belief that it takes a village of creative, dedicated and talented people to make a film. He is very great full to have met and work with such people and hopes one day to be able to pay them for their time and contribution. Randy and his cast and crew won Best Picture, Best FX and Best Death Scene for the 6th annual Horror Fest Film Festival put on by The Okanagan Society for Independent Film in 2014. He has been lucky enough to share his passion with his son and only wishes he would have got at it many years earlier but "life Happens". It is all good though as more "Films will happen".

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.
