Editorial Review

Decidedly not average, this local chain has dozens of films for rent in categories such as Japanimation, sci-fi and nature.

It's an unfortunate fact of life that sometimes long-distance relationships cause people to grow apart. I used to live within walking distance of Vulcan and was a regular. Then I moved. Not that...

I wish i had a store like this near me! It looks amazing, we need more places like this. To talk to one another about movies and get out of the house.

Editorial review from Citysearch

Great store, except... the staff has an idiot (glasses, mustache with goatee, receding hair, wore a white plaid shirt) who can't comprehend a simple question. I brought an empty case to ask him ""Do you have this movie?"" There are only two ways to answer the question: ""Yes"" or ""No"". This dumbf**k instead said that I'm holding a jewel case, and the actual discs are on the shelf behind him. I repeated the question. He repeated the same response. Is it so difficult to answer ""Yes"" or ""No""? I got the impression that the movie has been checked out. So I asked him when is it going to be...

Of course they'll have that movie.

A true Austin treasure. If you are increasingly frustrated by the ever-thinning streaming selection on Netflix then come support this wonderful local business.

Great, knowledgeable staff, and a fab selection of movies, from the impossibly obscure to the bigger budget new releases and everything in between.

Quirky and sometimes weird employees sift through the thousands of obscure and mainstream titles to add ohh and ahh to your movie night. Check out the directores section!

Tips about this business (2)

The Extras

A good film can be the embodiment of illusion. Head around the corner to Lucy In Disguise and find a costume--or at least something that doesn't fall within your traditional wardrobe.

Save Money

Return a new film within a day and get a dollar credit toward your next rental.
