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 mysterious art gallery curator introduces three separate supernatural horror stories through paintings that depict each tale. The film includes classic fright scenarios like a haunted painting, a vengeful corpse, and a cursed doll.

Directed by Boris Sagal, Steven Spielberg and Barry Shear, the film consists of three supernatural tales that served as the pilot for the anthology television series of the same name, written and hosted by Rod Serling. Serling garnered the Edgar Award for Best TV Episode for this effort. The film premiered on NBC on November 8, 1969.
