I like this video club and I know it's 2008 but DVD club just doesn't seem to have emerged as a mainstream enough term despite the obvious fact that Prime doesn't sell/loan any videos at all.
It's the choice I like here. They have all the blockbusters, the Hollywood stuff starring Ben Stiller and Leo but they also have old movies, plenty of black and white, a few stands of thrillers and horrors, a good amount of shelves for world cinema, classics and TV box sets.
The also have a stand for their staff recommendations - look out for Carlos' choices - he's got really eclectic taste and has some really interesting choices including, the other night, a half decent film with Katie Holmes in it - Pieces of April.
Having said all this the only nights I entertain renting from here are Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday - for price reasons. Mid week it's 2 movies for 2 nights at £5 while other night it's £3.25 a night whatever the film. Rent on those 3 days though and it's a decent enough deal for a central London video club. read more
