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.

The Possessed is a 1977 American supernatural horror television film directed by Jerry Thorpe, written by John Sacret Young, and starring James Farentino, Claudette Nevins, Eugene Roche, Harrison Ford, Ann Dusenberry, Diana Scarwid, Joan Hackett, P. J. Soles, and Dinah Manoff. The film follows a former priest, now an exorcist, who battles Satanic forces that are threatening the students at an Oregon girls' high school. Produced by Warner Bros.

The film was shot on location in Portland, Oregon in January 1977, mainly on the campus of Reed College. It was first telecast on NBC on May 1, 1977. It received largely negative reviews from critics at the time of its release, though it has attained some retrospective praise from genre critics. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
