The 3D catalogue: film cases on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

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.

What happens

The Mummy and the Curse of the Jackals is a 1969 American independent horror film directed by Oliver Drake and written and produced by William Edwards, starring Anthony Eisley, John Carradine, Robert Alan Browne and Marliza Pons. The film is known for its premise, featuring a mummy and a "were-jackal", and for its troubled production history: It was shot on location in Las Vegas in 1969, but it went unreleased until it surfaced on video in the mid-1980s.
