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

『死霊の罠2／ヒデキ』（しりょうのわな2/ひでき）は、1992年（平成4年）7月11日に公開された日本映画。製作・配給はジャパンホームビデオ。上映時間は97分。 ジャンルはスプラッター、ホラー、オカルト。 映画館で、映写技師の職を得ているカメラマンの亜紀は、とくに誰とも口をきくわけでなく、かつて身勝手な男に騙され身体を傷つけられたという過去を持っている孤独な女性である。そんなある日、いつものように仕事を終えた亜紀は、唯一心を許せる親友で現役のリポーター絵美に誘われ夕食をともにするが、そこに現れた絵美の知人・倉橋という男がやがて常軌を逸したように亜紀につきまといはじめる。数日後、絵美が番組でリポートした事件の収録ビデオを見た亜紀は、カメラの片隅に映る謎の少年の姿を確かに目にする。その日より、亜紀と絵美、そして倉橋を巻き込んだ狂気の世界が繰り広げられる。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
