VHS TAPES ON DECK!

Netflix didn't quite kill the video store.

The video rental store of your childhood will soon cease to exist. These are some of the final moments of two of the last Blockbuster Video stores in North America.

Videodrome, the roughly 2,000-square-foot shop at the corner of North Highland and North avenues, is the last video store standing in Atlanta that is not of the XXX variety. It is an oasis for film buffs (and the occasional visiting celebrity) who are suckers for special features, director’s cuts, or not letting Netflix’s algorithms ration out their media diets.

“Friday night at the video store, 1986.”

No exhibition about the 1990s would be complete without mentioning Blockbuster, a single-home video rental shop. The first store in the UK opened in March 1989 and at its height in 2002, Blockbuster UK operated out of over 800 stores.
