Editing Guidelines Please remember these guidelines when editing a film article: If a non-film article already exists with the name of the film that you are trying to create an article for, disambiguate and use (film) in the title: Film Title (film) For more information see: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films) When writing an article about a particular film, the general format should be a concise lead section, followed by a plot summary of no more than 900 words, production details, a cast list, a reception section, and references. Create an Infobox that tells all pertinent information about the film. Article upgrading needed: You can help! WP:IA   Stub to Start-Class Upgrading Instructions for Films Note that instructions for articles on other types of film topics within the scope of WikiProject Films are currently under development. To contribute in upgrading this stub article to Start class, the following requirements must be met: Significant intro (list the title, alternate titles, year released, director, actors starring in the film, summary of headings, etc.) Film infobox ({{infobox film}}) Picture: Consult WikiProject Free Images for freely released images from a film shoot, opening, or other relevant free image. Non-free and unlicensed images are to be avoided if at all possible, but if used should include a detailed fair use rationale. (An image is not required for start class if unavailable.) Plot summary Include cast and crew information. At least two other developed sections of information (production, reception (including box office figures), awards and honors, themes, differences from novel or TV show, soundtrack, sequels, DVD release, etc.) Categories (by year, country, language, and genre(s))  Helpful links: WP:BETTER, WP:LEAD, WP:REF, WP:WAF Once this article has fulfilled these requirements, the film can be reassessed to Start class and this template will be removed automatically.

[edit] Spelling

The IMDB cast list shows the surname as Meiks rather than Meeks, although their plot summary agrees with the latter. Where can we find the definitive spelling? HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 16:08, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, I just looked at the credits, and their surname isn't listed, so I guess it's up for debate. --Closedmouth 04:53, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

The back of the VHS lists the name as Meiks. I've, therefore, made the appropriate changes. "Country" Bushrod Washington 17:13, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

The subtitles in the DVD spell it Meiks.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Frailty.jpg

Image:Frailty.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] The "God's Hand" killer

"However, the "God's Hand" killer is the real Fenton, who kept the bodies of his victims as trophies in his house basement." Why did Fenton kill people? I thought, Fenton did not believe in the visions of his father and brother... --Moscvitch (talk) 01:28, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Fenton was a serial killer and killed for pleasure, supposedly because he really was a "demon". Annie D (talk) 04:57, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Thank you. --Moscvitch (talk) 16:32, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, he was probably physcologically damaged by his father who killed the demons.Androo123 (talk) 22:04, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rating of Movie

At the bottom of the page, at the details section, it says the rating is R (restricted +18). But I saw this movie at school, surely the teacher did not make us watch a R movie?!Androo123 (talk) 22:06, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

I just checked the imdb page, it says the film's rated R there, too. Annie D (talk) 00:27, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
