VHS rentals

This may seem like an odd question, but does anyone know of any local video rental places?

What I am looking for is one with an old/fantastic horror section. I am aware of Hollywood Express, but their collection is small and their rental fees are a little high for VHS. I used to go to Palmer Video on Broadway but it shutdown a few months ago. They had the most extensive horror section to date. I don't like going by Netflix because it just isn't the same. I'm willing to travel several towns away if anyone knows of a place or has suggestions. I'm interested in late 70's/80's/early 90's, not the new stuff. Thanks!!

That's the one next to Live Poultry Fresh Killed, isn't it? That's a very special smelling place, but it does add to the ambience.

Yup, that's the place. It's an interesting neighborhood..there's also a tiny store that deals in collectable toys across the street.

I haven't explored the neighborhood there much, but I went there on a date once, and we admired the incredible collection of sci fi, horror, and porn; the smell made it all the more memorable. But at this point, I can't remember how much was VHS.
