Before Netflix and chill was a thing, weekends in the 1990s and 2000s meant going to your local Blockbuster, browsing through the dusty aisles, and taking your chosen film home to sit back on the sofa.

But as Blockbuster filed for bankruptcy in the US in 2010, there’s one precious relic remaining in Bend, Oregon. And the manager Sandi, who has kept the establishment running “like butah” invites everyone “to dust off those membership cards for a sleepover, except this time, you won’t have to beg your parents to rent the latest horror flick.”

The stay will only set you back 4 dollars (plus taxes and fees) for an unlimited movie marathon. So let’s take a look at what home entertainment fans aching to relive the glory days of Blockbuster have in there on the menu.

After the last Blockbusters closed in Australia and Alaska about a year ago, Bend Blockbuster in Oregon is the only store of its kind that remains open in the entire world.

Kevin Daymude, a Blockbuster manager in Alaska prior to the stores’ closure in the state, told Business Insider that Blockbusters are simply no longer relevant like they used to be.

“Let’s be real, you have Netflix, you have Redbox,” he commented. The former manager added: “The economy is tough right now, so people are still renting—but they aren’t renting as much.”

Meanwhile, the Bend store managed to outlast thanks to loyal customers and nostalgic tourists flocking to the venue to get that ‘90s fix. Bend Blockbuster officially became a franchise in June 2000.

According to the description on its website, it marked the “the beginning of our Blockbuster Story. How a small business, through stubborn determination and a bit of pure luck, has been able to operate in the chaos of an ever-changing home video world.”
