Movie Madness is truly a Portland landmark. It's independently owned and run and carries every film you could ever want (and many that are far too weird and wacky for most tastes). Movies are available on a variety of formats and they're not phasing out VHS tapes like the big boy chains. The owner and his staff are some of the most knowledgeable (and okay, kinda geeky) film buffs on the planet. They are passionate about movies and will recommend stuff you've never heard of, whether you ask them to or not. Real Hollywood props line the store and staff picks are $1. New releases--yes, they carry them--are $3. Swing by the store on Belmont and be prepared to be amazed.
