Someone can call it luck or coincidence, but I have loved each and every film that I have seen at Darkside. Some films are not even the usual kinds of films that I watch, but I still go each time knowing that Ill have a good time and that I will see something that will add something new to my life. Great place, great service, awesome atmosphere and selection of amazing films (many award winning) and the popcorn and snacks are really tasty. So, take a chance and watch a new film now, and there is a very high chance youll be blown away too. No research necessary, most times. But read the synopsis and trailers that Darkside provides to see if it peaks your interest--it will, though. Make it a regular thing and your life will be better for it.

This isnt a theater where youll see "The Avengers". This is a theater where youll get to see independent movies and documentaries that dont always come to other theaters. This isnt for everyone, so whether you like what theyre showing or not, Ill gloss over... It IS a really fun place though with a great atmosphere. The only thing that I would "warn" about are the chairs. Some of them are a little scary to lean back in, so be cautious if thats something youre worried about. Bottom line: Great place, great prices, great movies if thats the genre youre looking for.

Cute theater, more reasonable prices than the other theaters. If youre in to indie films, this is the place to go in Corvallis. They also have cool events from time to time, like an international film festival, where theres free entry to a different foreign film every night for a week. Also, they have a TARDIS at the top of the stairs.

This place is just right, if thoughtful is in your agenda. Not for the masses who need glitter to feel OK. A real treasured resource. Often has important films before they become big hits. Enjoyable for years. Kudos to the Owner who has made it with hard work and frugal and recycle methods. David B

Love this place! The ambiance, the film options and the awesome crew. Plus no need to sneak your food in, they welcome such behavior. But if you didnt plan ahead they still have you covered with great selections at prices the 99% of us can still afford. Did I mention theyre local

The Darkside may not be the biggest place to see a movie in Corvallis, but it is by far the BEST. Since 1997, owner Paul Turner has put his heart and soul into providing intelligent cinema (and quirky accoutrements). Highly recommended for any cinephile with a brain!

Chairs were comfier than expected, student discount is always a bonus, and your tickets come with a side of sarcasm (in a nice way). Just dont forget to turn off your phone. Plus, they show a lot of indie and art films you cant find elsewhere in town.

This little cinema is filled with a lot of character and charm. I really like their community movie night. Seeing old movies for free every Tuesday at 7pm is a great way to get cultured and build community.

One of the best secrets of Corvallis. The selecition of movies here is fantastic. Is not expensive and they are really nice people. When i move out of corvallis i will trully miss this place

Best thing in town. Considering the constraints of the business, youd have to say the selection of films is terrific. So is the coffee. Bravo.

Great price. Discounts for OSU students. Always showing the caliber of films that I like and care to see. Great location. Love this place.

Always has a selection of eclectic or well-reviewed independent films. Staff is laid back and fun to talk to.

Its old but tickets price is cheaper and everything is cheaper than other cinemas. Not very much commercial.

Charming theater, reasonable prices, and (usually) great selection of indie films and documentaries.
