The catalogue in 3D
The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real films from the same catalogue when you tell them what you feel like watching. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.
How it feels
A leopard escapes from a nightclub in a small New Mexico town, and a series of violent murders follow. The story follows the hunt for the animal and the suspicion that a human killer might be at work.

What happens
The Leopard Man is a 1943 American horror film directed by Jacques Tourneur, and starring Dennis O'Keefe, Jean Brooks, and Margo. Based on the book Black Alibi by Cornell Woolrich, it follows a series of violent murders in a town in New Mexico, which coincide with the escape of a leopard from a nightclub. It is one of the first American films to attempt an even remotely realistic portrayal of a serial killer (although that term had yet to be coined). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
