Videodrome — Local services in Atlanta

I thoroughly enjoyed this place! It is a truly nostalgic experience for those of us that grew up in the blockbuster days. It is like walking back in time. This store is wonderfully located and within walking distance to a lot of great places. Coming in, I'm surprised how clean it was. The whole store is very organized. They have it grouped by genres, decades, even an area organized by directors, which I thought was pretty cool. The gentlemen working are very accommodating. They do not mind helping you find movies, having casual conversation, and even entertained the 23,758 questions my daughter and niece had for their little toys at the front desk. Rentals were reasonable and they have frequent member cards. I stream all of my TV needs; even with the convenience of streaming, sometimes you can't beat nostalgia. I definitely recommend this video store. This 90's baby with an 80's heart will be a...

Wow! What an extensive collection of so many films in history! And they do rentals 😍😍😍 A bit bummed not many sales of movies but it is understandable considering the times and what they offer. But man oh man... this place is a film fans wet dream. They had all the stuff I never thought I would see in person and surprised me with a few things I did not know about.

It's a fine store and it is one-of-a-kind. It serves mostly blu-rays and some DVDs. There is a VHS section for purchase but it's rather small. The clerks can help you if you need to find a title for yourself, someone else, or a group. The selection is vast, international, and multi-genred yet well-organized. While many of my rentals have had damaged disk sections, none have been serious enough to make detriment to the viewing experience. They gave me a replacement DVD for a blu-ray that didn't operate correctly on my player. The value is in the vast archive and the guarantee that you have a place to walk to talk to an employee, as opposed to (paid) digital streaming which is a chute. It's worth visits because, even at the price of $5 for a one week movie rental, you can explore, talk, and support the future of archiving and...
