Viva Video!

Viva Video was the last Blu-ray/DVD rental store in the Philadelphia area, so now we're keeping the Viva spirit alive on social media and beyond!

[Viva Video! @RealVivaVideo]

We had a great run as Philly's last rental shop, but the die is cast, and in just under two months, 'Viva Video: The Last Picture Store' will be no more.

My version of a Hollywood Hail Mary pass: I've entered three scripts and a novel series into @ScriptPipeline & @BookPipeline, effectively blanketing @pipelinemediagp with my IP. I'll tweet about the quad individually in the coming days.

Let the games begin!

Looks like @TheBryanWay has a new book on the way!

Anthology excerpts!

"A low, clear moan echoes out of the coffin. Holt screams in pain, pulling his arm out to see black fluid flowing cleanly down his left hand. “Jesus, Bill, I’m tryin’ to fuckin’ save you! Give me your hand!”"

@SSK_UPPSSBSR Hello, Shakeel! This account is not associated in any way with the Viva Video phone app. We were a video rental store in Philadelphia, PA. From prior experience, the only way we are aware of contacting them is through the e-mail on their website: https://t.co/utFNqckB0j

Thanks to the folks at @MediaPAarts, Viva's staff and patrons have a home at the MAC Gallery through State Street Movie Night, and they need YOU to help make the new location bigger and better: 4k film projections, live music, and more! Donate today!

As many of you know, hosting SSMN screenings is a passion of mine. Thanks to @MediaPAarts, we have a home in Media, PA. Now that MAC has a new gallery location, they're going to need some startup cash, so DONATE TODAY! Your donation DIRECTLY impacts SSMN!

Former manager @TheBryanWay is back in the saddle writing zombie fiction! Follow, tweet, and DM him, because he's gonna peddle some free books in support of three new short stories!

[The 𝙇𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝘼𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙧 Series @LifeAfterNovel]

More zombie short stories!

This one's been in progress for a long time: squabbling college students in Central PA must decide whether or not to rescue a friend on the other side of a campus filled with the undead.

Danger abounds!

[Viva Video! @RealVivaVideo]

The inventory liquidation starts today, meaning BIG price drops on the vast majority of our inventory for the last five sale days!

Bargain hunters, be warned! We are NOT slashing prices on out-of-print or obscure titles that we can easily sell on eBay!

[Amy Shannon @amyshan_72]

#ABSR Congratulations! #5Stars #ReleaseDay Such an honor to read and review this title. What an absolutely magnificent story! Check out the review and story, and see why it's a 5 star review of Life After: The Maze by Bryan Way @TheBryanWay https://t.co/PWrxDIvZXZ

[Viva Video! @RealVivaVideo]

After a weekend of deliberation, we've finally settled on a schedule for our last week!

Normal sales will continue through Tuesday, after which we will initiate an inventory liquidation until the store closes on 8/29, so come pick up your last movies from Viva Video!

[Viva Video! @RealVivaVideo]

When @FOX29philly stopped in to do a piece on Viva closing, we knew it would be one of the last. We didn't know it'd be one of the best. Thank you.

Looks like @TheBryanWay is taking a run at some more zombie stories! Check it out, and help support a soon-to-be unemployed self-published author!

[The 𝙇𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝘼𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙧 Series @LifeAfterNovel]

Hey there. Been awhile. And still cranking out zombie fiction even though it's gone out of style.

[Viva Video! @RealVivaVideo]

There's an article about the store closing by @thephillyvoice, and thus far, the comment section is a cesspool of snark. This is why we love our customers: anyone who knows us gets what the community is losing.

@TheBryanWay The greatest assistant manager in video store history. You will be missed.😭

[Bryan Way @TheBryanWay]

After 5,100 days on the job, I will cease to be a video store clerk when Viva Video closes on 8/31.

All we can do with the time we have is find something we love and dedicate ourselves to it passionately. I did. @RealVivaVideo may soon be gone, but its community will live on.
