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

Puppet Master 5: The Final Chapter is a 1994 direct-to-video horror film written by Steven E. Carr among others, and directed by Jeff Burr. As its title suggests, this fifth film in the Puppet Master franchise was originally intended to conclude the series; however, it was followed by at least ten other films. It was the sequel to 1993's Puppet Master 4, and stars Gordon Currie as the series' third Puppet Master, and Ian Ogilvy, his colleague, whose attempts to salvage the animated puppets of André Toulon (Guy Rolfe) from the Bodega Bay Inn are foiled by a demon. As in the previous film, the puppets serve as protagonists, rather than terrorize as they had in the first and second films. In 1998, a sixth installment, Curse of the Puppet Master, was released, and the franchise has been ongoing since. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
