For those who truly miss their trips to the video store and 藤竜也 ポルノ映画can't quite live off people's incredible home DIY versions on TikTok, Netflix has created a little throwback for you.
The streaming service is opening three promotional pop-up video stores in England to mark the release of Fear Street Part 1: 1994, the first installment of Leigh Janiak's Fear Streettrilogy, based on R.L. Stine's beloved horror books.
Set to open in in London, Brighton, and Newcastle, the appropriately named Shadyside Videos will be available for the public to peruse on Friday, July 2, between midday and 8 p.m., and over the weekend between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. The stores will then reopen with the same respective opening hours on July 9 and 10.
And yes, there's "blood" on the floor right there.
Inside, you'll find a photo booth "with a twist" (whatever that means, I'm...afraid?). Visitors can also enjoy giveaways of Fear Streetmerch, including a T-shirt collaboration with streetwear brand Aries. In the Newcastle store, they'll be giving away "blood-splattered" chocolate bars made by local outfit The Chocolate Smiths. Plus, local artists Alice Bloomfield, Pippa Toole, and Cori Henderson have created retro poster artworks for the London, Brighton, and Newcastle stores respectively.
Now, importantly, these video stores opened by a streaming giant — whose very existence and our irreversibly changed ways of viewing movies means we'll probably never go back to a video store format ever again — don't actually have any movies you can rent.
