Behind The Counter

Kevin, Jessie, and Sprinkles •www.cinedump.com

Before Google, social media, or IMDb there were the guys behind the counter. They were your window to all things movie: What just came out, what is good, and what is not worth watching. Tune in each week as we go in depth into everything from the 80s and 90s cult classics to newer movies still in the theatres. We will be selecting staff picks, doing interviews, and keeping you up to date with all the nostalgia you can handle.
