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

La cruz del diablo (English: "The Devil's Cross") is a 1974 Spanish horror film directed by John Gilling from a screenplay by Paul Naschy and Juan Jose Porto, and starring Carmen Sevilla, Adolfo Marsillach, Ramiro Oliveros and Emma Cohen. The film is based on three short stories written by Gustavo Adolfo Bécquer. Its plot concerns a British writer who travels to Spain to visit his sister, only to discover she has been murdered by a satanic cult. The film was only released theatrically in Spain in March 1975, and was never dubbed in English nor shown outside of Spain. It was Gilling's final film before his death in 1984.
