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.
How it feels

What happens
The Evil Within is a 2017 American independent psychological horror film written and directed by Andrew Getty in his directorial debut, starring Frederick Koehler, Michael Berryman, Sean Patrick Flanery, Dina Meyer, Kim Darby, and Brianna Brown. It was originally titled The Storyteller. The film's conception and development were a personal project of Getty's, who largely self-financed it at an estimated cost of $4–6 million; the film's production entered development hell and took fifteen years to complete. Following Getty's death in 2015, editing for the film was completed by producer Michael Luceri. The film made its official première at the Fantasporto Film Festival on February 26, 2017, and later on at the Dead by Dawn Horror Film Festival and Mórbido Film Festival during the same year. It was acquired by Vision Films shortly after its première, who released it via Video on Demand on April 4, 2017. The Evil Within received mixed reviews from critics, who criticized the film's unevenness and dialogue while simultaneously commending it for its strangeness and Getty's devotion to the material.
