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 Final Girls is a 2015 American comedy horror film directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson and written by M.A. Fortin and Joshua John Miller. The film stars Taissa Farmiga and Malin Akerman, with supporting performances from Adam DeVine, Thomas Middleditch, Alia Shawkat, Alexander Ludwig, and Nina Dobrev. The plot follows a group of high school students who are transported into a 1986 slasher film called Camp Bloodbath. The film was originally picked up by New Line Cinema in November 2011, but the script was shopped elsewhere when production did not get off the ground. Later, Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions bought the rights to the film under the Stage 6 Films banner, with Michael London and his company Groundswell Productions producing the feature. Principal photography lasted a month in April–May 2014, taking place in Baton Rouge and St. Francisville, Louisiana. The Final Girls had its world premiere on March 13, 2015 at South by Southwest. It was released in the United States on October 9, 2015 in a limited theatrical run and through video on demand by Stage 6 and Vertical. The Final Girls received generally positive reviews from critics, with many praising the performances and atmosphere, as well as its direction, screenplay and homages to 1980s horror films.
