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

Erotic Nights of the Living Dead (Italian: Le notti erotiche dei morti viventi) is a 1980 Italian erotic horror film written and directed by Joe D'Amato. It was filmed in and around Santo Domingo. Like many films by D'Amato; the title was written as a tongue and cheek play on another film, with this one referencing the Night of the Living Dead series of films. The movie received mixed to negative reviews upon release, but an upscaled & updated new release of the film was released on DVD decades later. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
