 CRYPT
OF THE REAPER & CHUCKLE'S DUNGEON
We have spent the last year working on the haunt at Buckingham Square
Mall. The last two years were incredible with our 25th Hour theme and we
were really appreciative of the great reviews you gave us, but we felt
our annual customers deserved some new thrills so we completely changed
the flow of the show and re-imagined the haunt presentation for the 2005
season.
Our new theme is The Crypt of the Reaper. The concept is that you are
visiting THE crypt where The Reaper (you know the guy who collects
souls) keeps some of them for his own reasons. You are challenged
(shortly after your soul is taken) to try and get through a set of
tasks. If you survive all the tasks - you have a chance to redeem your
soul.
Of course, this whole story is all just an excuse to scare the *&$% out
of you - and we think we've added a few great new scares this year that
will do just that. For those of you that are into trivia, try to find
the Big Trouble in Little China and Beetlejuice references in the haunt
.
We really hope you like the hard work that has gone into the new scares
and effects we've created this year.
 CARNEVIL
& FREAK SHOW
Located at Southwest Plaza also has some new
great scares. We enhanced the effects from last year and then, just to
spice things up a bit, added some even scarier ones throughout the
entire Haunt. Board an intimate train car
(groups of 10 or less) on an adventure you will never forget! Years
ago, there was a terrible accident at this remote carnival (only
reachable by train). Guests were trapped at the site and many of the
patrons, overcome by fear, went insane and began to prey on the other
visitors. The clowns have now taken over the show. After you step off
the train you'll have to stay one step ahead of deadly marionettes,
freaks of nature and clowns of doom. Just when you think you may be
safe, you find yourself in the Freak Show 3-D Maze - terrible hallways
of 3-D enhanced scenes populated by, you guessed it, CLOWNS bent on
keeping you from the exit. Everyone loves a clown...just not these
clowns! So what are you waiting for? Come and experience the
“Greatest Scares on Earth”!!
 13TH
DOOR HAUNTED HOUSE
Our newest and most convenient location is back with even more spine
tingling excitement. Your journey begins as you relive the historic
events that led to the Barrington Hotel Massacre. Back in 1912 when the
Hotel was first built, owner John A Barrington threw a costume party in
the penthouse for all the movers and shakers in Denver society. His
Nephew, Andrew Barrington, came to the party uninvited and wanted money
from his Uncle to pay off a gambling debt. His Uncle refused him and
this sent Andrew into a homicidal rage. He blocked all the exits from
the Penthouse and then began massacring the guests. He cut off their
hands to take their jewelry and then set fire to the hotel. Andrew
Barrington was never captured. The two waiters who survived did so
because they were able to find the 13th Door. Will you be as
lucky or will Andrew Barrington’s ghost find you first!!
 BOOVILLE
is a Haunt just for kids ages 9 and under. Sponsored by Radio Disney,

Ray Bradbury and James Cameron
to Receive Space Exploration Awards
The Planetary Society's
25th Anniversary Dinner - November 12, 2005.
In celebration of its 25th Anniversary, The Planetary
Society will honor science fiction author Ray Bradbury and film
director James Cameron with two special awards: The Thomas O.
Paine Award for the Advancement of Human Exploration of Mars to
Bradbury and The Planetary Society's inaugural Cosmos Award for
Outstanding Public Presentation of Science to Cameron.
Both awards will be presented at The Planetary Society's 25th
Anniversary Gala Awards Dinner: Our Next Age of Exploration on
November 12, 2005. For more information, visit
http://planetary.org/2005awardsdinner.
As The Planetary Society looks back on our past 25 years and forward to
the exciting decades of exploration to come, these two recipients embody
the dreams of space travel that propel us forward and show us what we
can accomplish in the future.
"Bradbury and Cameron ideally represent the spirits of these awards,"
said Neil deGrasse Tyson, Planetary Society Board Chairman. "Both of
these storytellers have supplied powerful testimony to the rationale for
human space exploration beyond the Moon - a subject now revived in
public and political discourse."
Engaging the public in the romance of space exploration is an integral
part of The Planetary Society's mission. Sagan's landmark television
series, Cosmos - written with Ann Druyan, who is chairing the dinner -
also celebrates its 25th anniversary this year. Cosmos fueled the
imagination of millions of viewers around the world. To honor the
innovators who follow in this tradition of presenting science and
scientists in an accurate, yet entertaining and enthralling way, the
Society is bestowing the first Cosmos Award for Outstanding Public
Presentation of Science to James Cameron.
Cameron's recent IMAX films Ghosts of the Abyss and Aliens of
the Deep have allowed audiences to join true-life adventures with
real explorers as exciting as any fictional plot that Hollywood could
devise. Titanic-director Cameron is a firm supporter of
planetary exploration, a member of the NASA Advisory Council, and is
planning future film projects to introduce audiences to the wonders that
await us on Mars.
By inspiring generations of men and women who will one day build the
spacecraft to take humans to Mars, Bradbury has been named the latest
recipient of The Thomas O. Paine Memorial Award for the Advancement
of Human Exploration of Mars. Bradbury has been whisking readers to
Mars and other distant reaches of the universe for over half a century.
Many of the scientists and engineers now engaged in planetary
exploration were first introduced to alien worlds in Bradbury's short
stories and novels, including his famous Martian Chronicles.
Tom Paine served on The Planetary Society's Board of Directors for many
years and was NASA Administrator at the time of the Apollo 11
moon landing. Paine was a long time advocate of sending humans to
explore Mars, and the Society established an award in his honor in the
early 1990s, presenting the first Thomas O. Paine Memorial Award
to planetary scientist Christopher McKay and then-NASA Administrator
Daniel Goldin in 1994. Other past winners include Planetary Society
co-founder Carl Sagan, the Apollo-Soyuz astronauts, and the
Mars Pathfinder and Mars Global Surveyor teams.
Both awards will be presented on November 12 at The Planetary Society's
25th Anniversary Awards Gala Dinner at the world-famous Santa Anita
Park, the proceeds of which will help fund Society projects to advance
the exploration of the solar system and the search for extraterrestrial
life. |

 The
Greatest Game Ever Played
Screening Quiz/Contest
Screening Monday, Sept. 19th @ 7PM at
The Olde Town Theater (W. 55th & Wadsworth)
From the studio that brought you The Rookie and Miracle and
director Bill Paxton, comes a story of courage, passion and of the
greatest American sports hero you have probably never heard of. An
amateur player from a working class family, Francis Ouimet shocked
the golf world when at the 1913 U.S. Open, flanked by his
10-year-old caddie, he defeated his idol, the defending British
champion Harry Vardon. An unlikely match-up "the ingénue versus the
seasoned champ" theirs was the greatest match the sport had ever
known.
Caught between a world of hardship and a beckoning life of
privilege, Francis needed to prove his unfailing will and ability to
make it to the tournament. With help from his pint sized caddie,
Eddie Lowery, Francis finds his way through the troublesome fairways
to victory.

 Cry_Wolf
Screening - Instant Win Quiz
Screening Thursday, Sept. 15th @ 7pm @ The
Continental (I-25 & Hampden)
In the new teen thriller Cry_Wolf, eight unsuspecting high
school seniors playing a game of lies come face-to-face with terror and learn
that nobody believes a liar - even when they¹re telling the truth.After one
too many incidents of bad behavior at his last school, Owen Matthews (Julian
Morris) arrives at Westlake Prep where a young woman has recently been found
murdered in the dark woods near the boarding school's campus. Owen quickly falls
in with the school's unofficial club, including the beautiful and savvy Dodger
(Lindy Booth of Dawn of the Dead and Wrong Turn) and quick-talking,
short-tempered Tom (Jared Padalecki of the new television series Supernatural).
At Owen's suggestion, his new friends decide to expand their game's reach beyond
campus, by spreading an online rumor that a serial killer called "The Wolf"
committed the recent murder and is planning to strike again.
The mischievous group's descriptions of "The Wolf's" intended victims are
based on the people they know best - each other. Only when the school's
journalism teacher, Rich Walker (Jon Bon Jovi), warns the group about the kinds
of predators that lurk on the internet does Owen begin to regret sending their
falsified story into cyberspace. When the described "victims" suddenly start to
disappear, Owen, Dodger, and Tom are no longer able to determine where the lies
end and the truth begins. As someone - or something - starts hunting the players
themselves, the game turns terrifyingly real.
This film is rated PG-13.
Here's the Starland game:
Go right now to the
Cry Wolf Website and find the answer to this question:
What is the name of their club?
Then call 720.261.0570 and give us the answer and you'll be added to our list
