The rambling metropolis of Los Angeles sprawls across the thousand square miles of a great desert basin, knitted together by an intricate network of congested freeways between the ocean and the snowcapped mountains. Its colorful melange of shopping malls, palm trees and swimming pools is both mildly surreal and startlingly familiar, thanks to the celluloid self-image that it has spread all over the world.

LA is a young city; in the mid-19th century, it was a community of white American immigrants, poor Chinese laborers and wealthy Mexican ranchers, with a population of less than 50,000. Only on completion of the transcontinental railroad in the 1880s did it really begin to grow, as a national mecca for good health, clean living, plentiful sunshine and endless acres of citrus crops. The biggest group of transplants were refugees from the Midwest, who created a new political ruling class to replace the old Mexican elite. The old ranchos were soon subdivided, the population grew rapidly, and the enduring symbol of the city became the family-sized suburban house (with swimming pool and two-car garage). The biggest boom came after World War II with the mushrooming of the aeronautics industry.

While it has its fine-art museums, California cuisine and a few old-fashioned urban plazas, what people really come here for is to experience the city that has come to epitomize the American Dream the fantasy worlds of Disneyland and Hollywood, as well as the gilded opulence of Beverly Hills and Malibu.

With only limited space between the desert, the mountains and the ocean, LA has long since filled in the gaps between what were once small and isolated towns. As a result, it's a massive conglomeration of interconnected, amorphous districts, often with little in common.  Los Angeles has had numerous Real Estate opportunities over the years, with a high influx of population driven by the Hollywood and beach lifestyles offered.  As far as rentals and apartments go in the Los Angeles area, try: Los Angeles Apartments - Search thousands of Los Angeles apartments, map-based and keyword searches deliver results fast . Moving?

If LA has a heart, however, it's downtown, in the center of the basin. It offers a taste of almost everything you'll find elsewhere around the city, from upscale avant-garde art along Bunker Hill to the abject dereliction of Skid Row in the Eastside, compressed into an area of small, easily walkable blocks. The area around downtown contains some decaying Victorian suburbs, 1920s Art Deco buildings and the center of LA's enormous and growing Hispanic population.

Heading west from downtown to the coast, the first major district you come to, Hollywood, has streets caked with movie legend -- even if the genuine glamor is long gone. Adjoining West LA is home to the city's newest money, shown off in Beverly Hills and along the Sunset Strip. Santa Monica and Venice to the west are the quintessential seafront LA of palm trees, white sands and laid-back living, while the coastline itself stretches another 20 miles northwest to glamorous Malibu, home to the movieland elite.

Suburban Orange County, to the southeast, holds little of interest apart from Disneyland and a handful of laid-back beach towns. On the far side of the northern hills lie the San Gabriel and San Fernando valleys, or simply "the Valley."

Landis has a book out on the genre and Dante has a DVD of movie trailers. They'll sign these new releases in L.A.

From the earliest days of cinema, audiences have loved to be scared. The three-minute film from French cinema pioneer Georges Méliès, "The Haunted Castle," hit screens in 1896 with celluloid skeletons, ghosts, witches and even the devil himself, and our appetite for thrills hasn't abated since. Franchises such as "Saw" and "Paranormal Activity" continue to redefine the horror genre while setting records at the box office.

Southern California's early punk and media art scene is the focus of the film program 'Strange Notes and Nervous Breakdowns' at MOCA. It's part of the museum's 'Under the Big Black Sun' exhibition.

The early SoCal punk scene wasn't all guitars, mosh pits and visions of chaos — although there was a good dose of that, thanks to bands such as the Germs and Black Flag. Rather, the music was experimental, arty and all over the map.
