    Cool 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.

    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)

    Cool variety of old horror flicks and a small but diverse music section. Tons of tapes if that's your thing

    Dick 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!

    One of the last of a dying breed. Great independent record store. Reasonable prices, knowledgeable staff, minimum hipster attitude. (Are you listening, Reckless?)
