Theatrical Treasure

Those of us who were born in Oregon during the 80’s & 90’s know how much of an iconic moment it was for the State of Oregon when the legendary cult classic “The Goonies” premiered. From Portland to Pendleton, Astoria to La Grande and every coastal city & mountain town in between, “The Goonies” became THE identity of the entire state of Oregon. But not necessarily for the emergence of what would become pop culture characters, classic taglines & memorable scenes. Rather for the dreamy & adventurous way in which our beautiful coastal town of Astoria, Oregon was portrayed. 

As kids we all toured those same caves, heard about the large amount of international ships that crashed abroad our beaches & went on field trips that were inspired by popular trails that coincided with the allure of the famous “Oregon Trail” games. (Thats right, the game that let you chop off your wagon wheels., hunt for buffalo & part ways with family members who suddenly caught typhoid. The game that will forever go down in infamy.) 

But what about the lure of potential coastal treasure? What if there actually IS treasure on the Oregon coast? 

In search of the truth, The Portlander Ave. team had to find out for ourselves what all the hype was around the new local (soon-to-be-classic) documentary entitled “The True Quest for Fabled Treasure on the Oregon Coast”. 

This special Episode 1 is apart of the new series “Secrets of the Mysteries” and dives into age-old theories, artifacts & generational tales of the supposed treasure lost along the Oregon Coast.

Brought to you by the boldly creative minds of Executive Producers JB Fisher & Doug Kenck-Crispín as well as Master of Storytelling and the film's Director Tony Altamirano, “The True Quest for Fabled Treasure on the Oregon Coast” is a documentary that highlights the true (and maybe false?) rumors of hidden coastal treasures that would go on to eventually spark the creation of what now is the generational classic movie “The Goonies”. 

Introducing you to historic timelines of real life Oregon Coast activity through the eyes of international ship captains, world travelers as well as real life treasure hunters who conducted expeditions traveling the world and landing right on our Oregon coast. The story is brought to life by the superb collection of historical artifacts, timeline & documented events, truly captivating narration & complied interviews with real Oregon coastal & treasure historians. Some who easily steal many scenes in this exciting, nostalgic & thought provoking documentary. 

While we are dying to answer your main question of…”Well IS there actually treasure on the Oregon Coast?”, we’d rather you slip into something comfortable, grab the popcorn & turn off the lights to experience this truly theatrical adventure, yourself.
