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

The Uh-Oh! Show is a 2009 American comedy horror splatter film, written and directed by Herschell Gordon Lewis and starring Brooke McCarter, Nevada Caldwell and Joel D. Wynkoop. The film revolves around a game show, The Uh-Oh! Show, where contestants play to win money by answering trivia questions, but appear to be dismembered for every wrong answer. A reporter suspects the gruesome attacks might not be fake. Lewis re-named the film from its original working title of Grim Fairy Tales. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
