Las Vegas Real Estate Las Vegas Real Estate George Clooney, Rande Gerber and Preeminent Real Estate Developers to Transform Las Vegas Skyline With Las Ramblas Las Vegas real estate is on the rebound; Real Estate Prices Soaring Lake Las Vegas Resort Announces the Tom Fazio Course Rainbow Canyon Scheduled Ground in Early 2005 Lake Las Vegas Resort, a 3,592-acre residential, golf and resort community 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip, announced plans to build Rainbow Canyon, a new 18-hole, par-71 golf course designed by Tom Fazio. Rainbow Canyon will be Lake Las Vegas Resort's fourth course and will join the resort's other award-winning golf courses, Reflection Bay Golf Club, SouthShore Golf Club, and The Falls Golf Club. Rainbow Canyon's construction is slated to break ground in the first quarter of 2005 with an expected opening in 2007. The new course will be nestled in the mountains on the northern shore of Lake Las Vegas, adjacent to the award-winning Reflection Bay Golf Club, and will stretch from the lake's shoreline to the Rainbow Garden Geological Preserve. It will measure more than 7,000 yards and will feature extraordinary canyon settings, holes along Lake Las Vegas' shoreline and elevation changes that showcase Lake Mead, the Rainbow Gardens and Lake Las Vegas Resort. "Rainbow Canyon is a unique golf course design due to the topography of the land," said R.F. Boeddeker, president and chairman, Transcontinental Properties, Inc., Lake Las Vegas Resort's master developer. "Using the lay of the land, Tom Fazio has created one of Lake Las Vegas Resort's most challenging courses that truly complements the resort's other golf clubs. The resort prides itself on offering golfers some of the finest play available in the country and the addition of the new course reinforces Lake Las Vegas Resort's position as a world-class golf destination." Fazio has been involved with the design and construction of golf courses throughout the United States, including Shadow Creek Golf Course in North Las Vegas. "It is a real pleasure to be able to return to one of my favorite cities to design a special new golf course," said Fazio. "I have always thought that some of the most creative people in the world practice their trade in Las Vegas, and I am honored that the ownership of Lake Las Vegas Resort has given me the opportunity to be involved in their wonderful development. "Like Lake Las Vegas Resort itself, Rainbow Canyon will be unique, spectacular, and of the highest quality. I get excited about all of our new projects, but I am already looking forward to teeing it up on this one. It's going to be awesome!" About Lake Las Vegas Resort Lake Las Vegas Resort is a premier residential and resort destination situated on a privately owned 320-acre lake located 17 miles from the Las Vegas Strip.

Unlike other books on this subject the book is both thorough and easy to read. The layout is good, and information is easy to locate. More importantly it provides practical guidance and information in areas where other books are lacking. We have lived in France for a year now, and we wished we had had this book when we arrived. All the books we had read advised us to rent before buying, but none of them really explained what to do. This book has a great chapter explaining tenant's rights and telling us how to protect ourselves when we come to leave. What I like also is the information on how to settle, both the details about what is available for Brits in France, and how to settle within the French community - the author has clearly lived in France for some time. Anyone wanting to buy in France should take a look at the details about the many areas affected by flooding and termites, not to mention the subsidence in Normandy. We had not realised that one of the houses we were looking atis in fact in a risk area. This book is a must. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title .

Closing Costs Home buying costs vary by region, here are sample costs for Denver. Loan Approval What constitutes as loan approval in Denver?

The Mortgage Loan Application Mortgage loan applications made simple, bring this list. The steps to getting a VA Loan The steps to getting a VA loan, do you need one? What does it take to get one? Reverse Mortgages Reverse Mortgages have many benefits for older home owners. Financial Glossary It's important to understand the language of finance. Common Mistakes to Avoid Common home buying mistakes can be avoided, you need to know what some of them are. search Denver Real Estate Site How to qualify for a mortgage A brief summary on how to get a home loan When a mortgage lender takes your application they are checking your ability and willingness to repay. It is said that "history repeats itself". Lenders look at your history to predict the future. This process can go as quickly as 24 hours or take several weeks. This is done by checking the following items: Your credit history (the past 2 years) Your checking account (bounced checks are not good) Your income Your FICO score (on conventional loans) Almost everyone who has some sort of credit, some money set aside for a down payment and an income can get a loan. Now whether or not you want that loan may be a different story. Mortgage rates are proportional to the amount of risk the lender must take. If the credit history is bad, the risk will be off set by a higher interest rate. The best way to qualify for a mortgage that you want is to have a nice clean credit report, little debt and pay all your bills on time, every time. Excessive consumer debt as in multiple credit cards lowers your FICO score . A hint to avoid this happening is to consolidate your debt on one charge card. Even if you have excellent credit it is a good idea to pull a credit report on yourself, prior to visiting the lender. In Colorado you are allowed to do this free of charge once a year. (If you aren't in Colorado or any of the "free" states, then you can pay a small fee to obtain a copy of your credit report.) There are more than one credit reporting companies and not all companies report to all credit bureaus, so be sure to request a credit report from all, just to be sure. Here is how to contact the credit reporting agencies: Equifax Equifax Information Service Center P.O. Box 740241 Atlanta, GA 30374-0241 1-800-997-2493 You can also order your credit report from a secure section of the Equifax website at http://www.equifax.com Experian Experian National Consumer Assistance Center P,O, Box 2104 Allen, TX 75013-2104 1-888-397-3742 You can print a credit report order from at http://www.experian.com Trans Union Corporation, Consumer Disclosure Center P,.O. Box 390 Springfield, PA 19064-0390 1-800-888-4213 You can order a credit report online from Trans Union's website at http://www.transunion.com Be Pro-active... By reviewing your credit report prior to visiting a lender, you will be able to straighten out any errors or disputed items and avoid any troublesome holdups down the road. If you see a disputed item, an error made by a faulty social security number, a name similar to yours, or a court ordered judgment you paid off that hasn't been cleared from the public records, clear it off now. By writing to the credit reporting agency, you can have them remove the items and save you time and aggravation later. TIP: Make sure any outdated derogatory entries are deleted from your credit file. By outdated, anything over 7 years should be deleted (except bankruptcy which is 10 years). TIP: Officially cancel inactive credit cards Even if you don't use a credit card, some lenders will assume that credit limit is available to you and use it in qualifying you. Therefore, if you don't use it and don't need it, cancel it. Too many credit cards even with no balance can keep you from getting a loan. TIP: Hold off on making any major purchases until after you close on the loan. Many times people obtain a loan commitment then go out and charge a new car or a houseful of furniture, only to totally destroy the ratios on their loan commitment. If you find you need assistance with any of these strategies, it's OK to sit down and talk with a lender. Explain your situation and what you are trying to do. A good lender will help you structure your finances, credit report and budget, keeping your best interest in mind. Continue to How Much of a Down Payment? .

Production Company: Universal Pictures USA Box Office: $13 Million Budget Estimate: $7 Million Filming Locations: Universal Studios, Universal City, California, USA Editorial Reviews Amazon.com It's sick! It's twisted! It's House of 1,000 Corpses , and it's more fun than a wholesome bowl of "Agatha Crispies"! Dropped by two studios (Universal and MGM) and doomed to obscurity until Lions Gate Films gave it a limited theatrical release, Rob Zombie's gonzo horror flick is a blood-spattered throwback to the gore-fests of the '70s, lending new meaning to the term "box-office gross ." Most critics misunderstood this unbridled exercise in graphic style and violence, but for devoted horror buffs it's a refreshing rebuttal to the comparatively "polite" frights of the post- Scream era. While paying homage to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre , Last House on the Left , Motel Hell , and other gory classics, Zombie's ramshackle plot (two young couples are terrorized by an inbred family of homicidal maniacs) lacks a crucial sense of dread, but his pastiche of vivid colors, grainy fetish-films, and photo-negative imagery is guaranteed to hold your attention. A bona-fide cult item, this House is definitely worth a visit... if you dare. --Jeff Shannon Customers who viewed this DVD also viewed The Texas Chainsaw Massacre DVD ~ Jessica Biel House of 1000 Corpses ~ Various Artists House of Wax (Widescreen Edition) DVD ~ Elisha Cuthbert The Devil's Rejects ~ Original Soundtrack Explore Similar Items : in DVD , in Music , and in Toys & Games Spotlight Reviews Write an online review and share your thoughts with other customers. 45 of 61 people found the following review helpful: THE BOOGYMAN IS REAL, AND YOU FOUND HIM!! , August 16, 2003 Reviewer: Pamela Scarangello (Middletown, NJ USA) - See all my reviews I snatched this DVD off the shelf the day of its release, and for good reason. "House of 1000 Corpses" is absolutely the greatest grisly horror film I've ever seen! Watching the movie in its original theatrical premiere gave me the thrills and chills, and I don't even listen to any of Rob Zombie's music. What makes this film quite excellent is that it has finally reawakened the celluloid corpse of the horror genre; before this, Hollywood has churned out an obscene number of dull PG-13 teeny bopper flicks, including "Scream" and "I Know What you Did Last Summer." While paying homage to the low-budget shockfests of the 1960's and 70's, Zombie gives "House" a post-millenium twist with acidic photo negativity and twisted montages incorporating topless strippers, mutilated cadavers and snippets from campy black-and-white monster movies (provided by Dr. Wolfenstein's Creature Feature Marathon). Rob Zombie himself commented that a majority of "House's" gritty home video footage was shot through a hand-held camera in parts of Zombie's own basement! Also notice how NO high-tech computer effects were used; because "House" is set in the rural American South in 1977, the makers intended to stay true to that period (not to mention achieve realistic gore without overspending the budget). And of course the larger-than-life characters of "House of 1000 Corpses" are just as memorable as those in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." In fact, in the DVD's featurette, Sig Haig happily confessed how he would like to see this film presented in any tiny theatre where audiences can yell back at the screen! Who wouldn't love to visit Captain Spaulding's Museum of Monsters and Madman and sample a bag of tasty fried chicken? Would you dare purchase a ticket to the scary Murder Ride and learn the legend of Dr. Satan? Or how about the psychotic Spiderfly family, who light up the flickering candles on Halloween night and fiendishly participate in a gruesome celebration (one in which cheerleaders are gagged, tied up and tortured)? Better yet, when was the last time a cinema fanatic witnessed a cult ritual of blood and fire, dedicated to the famous Dr. Satan himself?! Although I enjoy watching this film from beginning to end, I do have a few favorite moments. The first that immediately comes in my head is none other than the creepy Murder Ride, complete with cross-shaped tombstones, animatronic zombies and the awesome Captain telling the tragic tales of real-life serial murderers, molesters and cannibals (most notably Ed Gein, the notorious killer whose farmhouse was borrowed for "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.") I love the part when Baby (Sherie Moon) struts her way to the stage in her glittering evening gown, lip-synching to "I Wanna Be Loved by You" like a cute Hollywood starlet. Such bizarre charm! Yet another moment that stands out in my mind is when the sadistic Otis (Bill Moseley) lops off a victim's right hand with an axe...all while the funky Commodore's hit "She's a Brick House" blares on the radio! Mother Firefly (played by the voluptuous Karen Black) sort of reminds me of a blond, venomous Sharon Osbourne from the South! You kiddies will be happy to know that actors Sid Haig, Sherie Moon AND Bill Moseley actually host the different menus on the DVD; after returning to their delightfully creepy roles in the film, they each provide color commentary DIRECTLY TO YOU! Unfortunately, the list of extras DOES NOT include any hardcore deleted scenes, but if you carefully listen to Zombie's commentary, you might get just a hint as to which kind of footage was edited out. The interviews segment is quite interesting to watch too. I think I like the part when Sid Haig (clown greasepaint and all) chose "House of Wax" as his most favorite horror movie. Each interview even unveils a brand new character action figure! I can hardly wait to see what Rob Zombie has in store for us in the future, when he prepares to unleash an even more violent sequel! RIP Dennis Fimple. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) 42 of 58 people found the following review helpful: Much better than you might think , July 2, 2003 Reviewer: N. Durham "Big Evil" (Reading, PA) - See all my reviews Fans have anxiously awaited Rob Zombie's directorial film debut for over 3 and a half years now, and while the finished product of House of 1000 Corpses isn't scary one bit, it's a very fun dirty little film that reminds us that horror films are supposed to be fun. In the late 70's, four kids go cross country and come across hearing the legend of Dr. Satan; an insane doctor who performed ghoulish experiments on his patients. Soon they pick up a hitchhiker (the oh so hot Sheri Moon; Rob Zombie's real life girlfriend), and from this point any veteran fan of horror films knows whats going to happen next. Soon we meet her family which includes Trilogy of Terror vixen Karen Black and the always excellent Bill Moseley. Next there are plenty of predictable scares followed by some nice gore and make up effects, and the film bares a stunning resemblance to the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Zombie partly succeeded his intention; to make a truly scary horror film like the ones of old, and while House of 1000 Corpses isn't the most brilliant piece of horror film (or the most intelligent for that matter), it's a fun ride nonetheless, and Zombie shows some true directorial talent. The performances are great with Moseley stealing the entire show, his performance bearing striking similarities to his zany and hilarious deliverance of Chop Top in Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2, and the cast also includes a foul mouthed clown faced Sid Haig and a southern drawl spewing Walt Goggins (Shane on TV's The Shield). All in all, House of 1000 Corpses is a gritty little movie that horror buffs will find some appreciation for. If you find you like this check out older horror films like Texas Chainsaw Massacre 1 & 2, Last House on the Left, and the original Hellraiser. Was this review helpful to you?

Vegan (Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews I consider myself a huge horror fan and I think "House of 1000 Corpses" is probably one of the worst horror movies, ever. In "House of 1000 Corpses", Jerry, Bill, Mary, and Denise take a trip to the American roads in order to collect material for a book about offbeat roadside attractions. At some point, Bill decides to stop at a gas station ran by an extremely weird man in a clown suit named Captain Spaulding. The place is very bizarre and tacky, but since Jerry and Bill live for that kind of rarities...they love the place!. Captain Spaulding nicely invites the two guys to take a look at the "murder ride". After finally managing to persuade the girls, the four friends take a look at the weird attraction. That's how they become aware of the local legend of Doctor Satan. A weird creature who devoted his entire life to experiment with people and turn them into monsters. Apparenly, Dr Satan was hung from a tree by a bunch angry villagers. That tree is not far away from the "murder ride". Obviously, Bill and Jerry insist Captain Spaulding on letting them know the way to that tree and he finally accedes. In the middle of the road, they pick up weird hitchhiker, a blonde girl named "Baby". The car breaks down all of a sudden, but Baby nicely offers some help and invites them to stay at her place while her brother fixes the car. Unfortunately, Baby and her family are a bunch of sadistic maniac who enjoy celebrating Halloween in a grotesque way. "House of 1000 Corpses" is nothing but a "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" rip-off. The film is very disturbing as some scenes and images were defiantely very creepy. Its also very gory but that doesn't mean its scary. It also sometimes goes over the top on the gore.

Otis isn't bad, except for his terrible wig and makeup job. This movie has some good scenes, mostly in the first third, but it moves like an overlong music video, the "shocks" aren't very shocking (especially since almost every gag is stolen directly from Texas Chainsaw Massacre), and the last half hour will put you to sleep. Not suspenseful or really scary even, but a good first 45 minutes or so. Devil's Rejects is a much better film. Was this review helpful to you?

Promising storyline. Young people in the middle of nowhere, bound to get into serious trouble. However, Rob Zombie gets most of the things just half-right. The young people go on a tour (at a gas station!) where serial killers are presented. Promising idea, but the result is a display of some odd people with strange interests. Not scary, and not amusing - not even fascinating - just a shrug. The climax of the tour is the story about "Dr Satan". He was an evil doctor and was hanged in a trea by the locals. The tree is not far from the gas station, so why not check it out? A flat tire and a "helpful" girl later, the young people are dining with a strange family. Maybe it could have developed in an interesting way, but it gets stuck. In retrospect, even this "Dr Satan" thing is just too uncreative. What kind of name is that? No mystery, just a blunt attempt to have an evil sounding name. Whatever happened to "Michael Myers", "Freddy Kreuger", "Damien Thorne", or "Jason Voorhees"? No, Rob Zombie gotto have the most evilest of evilier of names. The basic problems are: Too many bad guys, more strangeness than scary stuff, and not so good music. The result is that there is virtually no direction. Odd things happen. Strange people appear. The young people get scared or die - and as a viewer I don't really care which. You need one killer to be scared of, not strange people popping up here and there. Any increasing of the number of killers needs careful thought and working out. Or you will end up with a mess. Trust me. Was this review helpful to you? ( Report this ) See all 612 customer reviews... Listmania! The Worst Movies : by Shauna N.
