- L.May 15, 2016Cool collection of odd, rare (bootlegged?) sci-fi movies, even with YouTube around. They also have various versions of monopoly, some collectibles. Buy a tshirt and support your local music stores.Upvoted Dec 14, 2024
Best record store in the city. Great staff suggestions. And also best place to pick up old garage reissues (and used if you're there when they put it out, goes quick)
EmilyJanuary 7, 2015Cool variety of old horror flicks and a small but diverse music section. Tons of tapes if that's your thing- Great vinyl selection and helpful staff if you want recommendations.
NickDecember 26, 2014Was kinda busy in here around 11:30 when I went last, but the employees were super nice and knew what they were talking about. How refreshing!
Christian OlsonMarch 23, 2017Dick of an owner. I asked for a HTF movie. He said duh, not in print. HELLO? Nothing they sell on DVD is legit. It's all DVD-rs! Then he copped an attitude. He's selling ILLEGAL BOOTLEGS!
The amount of weird and interesting DVDs they have is amazing.
