ABOUT DARKSIDE CINEMA |

Open since April 1, 2005, Darkside Cinema is the only independently owned and operated movie theater in Corvallis. We play first run, indie, international, and documentary films. Some of you will remember our previous arthouse movie theater on Jackson Street: Avalon Cinema, open from 1997 to 2007.
Ask us about inexpensive on-screen advertising for your local business or non-profit organization. And ask us about renting the theater for private screenings, birthday parties, meetings or seances or practical jokes or ... ?
We proudly support these organizations and hope you will, too:
