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

Taste of Excitement, also known as Why Would Anyone Want to Kill a Nice Girl Like You?, is a 1969 British mystery thriller film directed by Don Sharp and starring Eva Renzi, David Buck and Peter Vaughan. It was written by Sharp and Brian Carton based on the 1965 novel Waiting for a Tiger by Ben Healey. The film was a co production between Group W and Trio Films. It was shot during 1968 on location around Nice on the French Riviera, but not given a general release until 1970. It had an X certificate for "moderate sexualised nudity".
