Description

Why DarkStar? This establishment goes far beyond a video store, this is more of a film school. Our inventory spans the great art form called Film. If you become a member of this video club you are saying to society No! I am not a number, I refuse to be a mere consumer. I demand more. In a manner not unlike an ACLU card or a firearms license your Darkstar membership card will represent a broad stroke across the canvass of your life. You can go to sleep every night with the firm conviction that you haven't surrendered to the bland corporate oppression that is Blockbuster or retreat in to the sad isolation of a Netflix subscription. We here at Darkstar are trying to make the world a better place, unlike our competitors who do little more than sap the strength and deaden the sensibilities of a great democracy. Did you know that Ann Coulter has a Blockbuster membership? Darkstar plays a socialization role for the right thinking iconoclasts of the Lincoln Square area. More then a few couples have met and hooked up within the bosom of Darkstar. At least two that we know of lead to marriage nuptials. The 4300 block of Lincoln has become THE destination for action on Chicago's north side and Darkstar is it's anchor. Do you have dogs? Do you have children? All are welcome in the Darkstar family. In fact we have more than a few children's movies which feature dogs. Are you confused, uncertain or lost? Feel free to look to our (usually) friendly staff for answers. Please be aware that we have no formal schooling in clinical psychology so questions must be confined to film. Have you seen every Hitchcock film? Have you watched the Wire? Can you recite the Big Lebowski? If not you're lagging. Empower yourself, get up to speed, ENRICH YOUR LIFE!!! This is why we've been a pillar of the Lincoln Square community for over ten years. If you're hip, if you're in the know, if you can get down with the clown then you have been chosen! Also we have a drop slot for after hours returns. Darkstar Video...where roving bands of gangs aren't a big problem anymore.
