This is a feature-length documentary on the historic Dallas, TX (2424 Swiss Avenue) goth club The Church, one of the longest-running clubs of its kind in the U.S. You’ll meet those who run the place, musicians, local bands, patrons and other people who explain why this place is just so important, as well as its motto of “Enter Without Prejudice.”

There’s a storyline in here with DJ Joe Virus, who went from a local to a national artist, as well as how the club would eventually close after the times of COVID-19, as a big company bought the entire block. Seeing the people whose lives were made by the space come back for one last time is quite emotional.

I always dreamed of places like this, as Pittsburgh had some minor spots — and I got here after The Decade and the Electric Banana were closing up — but nothing like this. If your town has a place with a history and a scene, celebrate it. You won’t know what you have until you lose it.
