Hey gang, I’ll be programming for a new micro cinema in Burbank opening at the end of May. The film series is called Contra Celluloid and it will be focused on obscure films that regularly don’t screen. We have some incredible films planned for you… stay tuned for more details! pic.twitter.com/fTQpkCV4jo

So, lots to go through. Sadly, as we reported earlier, Dark Delicacies (the oldest horror store in LA) has closed as of this April. What's apparently moving in its place is a Micro Cinema, no name yet. Not sure, how that's gonna stay a float with how much rent is and I believe one of the reasons Dark closed down.
What's been open in Burbank since the start of the year is a fun new place to grab spooky snacks!
LA Weekly has a charming article on the place and explains it's owned by the same people who own the Mystic Museum in The Frightfully Delightful Horror Boodega Opens In Burbank
So, if you need any year round creepy treats you can go here or Horror Vibes Coffee, but that's a bit further away and with more caffeine.
On coffee places, coming out from the same guys who run the Revenge Of comic shop is a new one in Glassell Park. And Destroy (the name) will be a gaming cafe ( board and card, mini figures) where you can grab some coffee. If it's anything like the great design of Revenge Of, can't wait to see it.
Say Cheese in Silver Lake closed this week, due to insane hikes on their rent. Ah, it just made that area special. Gonna miss it. Enjoy the poke bowl place or coffee shop going in that no one cares about.
Every time I am in Los Angeles I go to Apex. I nerd out here for hours. It started as a Hollywood Prop house but now it is a geek Mecca. Perhaps I will bring you all for a tour one day. Some items are quite historic. pic.twitter.com/1TJybzMrDf

You might want to check out the Apex prop house before anything could happen to it. We haven't heard anything, but the entertainment industry in LA ain't doing so hot.
Seriously, though, you've probably seen something from here in a movie or TV show you like and now you can take a gander at it. Or rent something for your production.
