The Alamo Drafthouse's bar-slash-video rental store is one of the coolest spots in Raleigh. A fantastic selection of mostly-local beer on tap is flanked by one of the best cult VHS collections in the country and an impressive selection of Blu-rays -- all free to rent.

Awesome selection of older and not so older videos to rent totally free. Huge collection of DVDs including TV shows as well as movies. VHS collection as well. Includes lots of horror, Sci Fi, wrestling, comedy, and cult favorites. Friendly and helpful staff who love movies. You can get 2 movies at a time for up to a week for free. Plus, great food, drinks, and in theater movies at Alamo.

What a fun, retro, and interesting place to go to see a movie! Not only do you have the experience of being thrown back to your childhood in the lobby with all of the VHS tapes; the theater is cool too! They serve you in your seats! No concessions to assault you in the lobby with the scrumptious smell of popcorn. You order, and your server brings it to you in your seat, at which you have your own little tray to rest your goodies on. They use dishes and glasses just like at home! Thank you for cutting waste and serving up a tremendous theater experience.

A great place to find older, cult, or hard to find movies on VHS, DVD, or Blu-ray. Rentals are free(!). Over 40 local craft beers on tap, plus a full bar. Food is good, but pricey. The atmosphere is fun and entertaining. Outside seating is a plus. They regularly have special events and special movie showings. Worth checking out.

Incredible gem boasting what I can only imagine are thousands of videos that you can rent for FREE! (Two out at a time, you provide credit card info in case of late charges and/or damage). It’s a nostalgic and fun experience selecting movies and they are organized extremely well by multiple categories. If you want to check if a movie is available, there are 2 iPads mounted in the area to easily search (the staff is also extremely helpful and friendly). They even have convenient drop off bins for after hours or if the main desk is too hectic. Such a cool way to relive the days of video rental stores, and I love that they have rescued all of these discs/tapes from now-defunct rental stores instead of sending them to a landfill.

We didn't go to see a movie because we wanted to browse and buy films. Extremely limited selection. They only had criterion collection blu rays and very few of them. They had a lot of video rentals, but browsing means flipping through thousands of plastic cards with images that are stacked in drawers. It is not convenient at all to browse. Put the movies on shelves like in the 80's. Who has that kind of patience to flip cards? There is a nice collection of video tapes though. They basically use cinema and movies as a motif for their restaurant. We are avid movie buffs, but this was a very veneer experience.

I have been looking for a video store for years. This place has it all, beer,VHS, DVD, VCR rentals, toys, fresh cooked food, theater playing new and vintage films, and more. The staff was helpful and ready and willing to assist.
