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.

How it feels

Three con artists who pretend to be psychic workers fake their way through supernatural jobs. They accidentally summon a demon and get turned into old women by an angry witch. They must deal with a green female ghost and a meddlesome samurai spirit while trying to fix the mess.

What happens

『胸騒ぎがする! 〜ヒールズ・フォーエバー〜』（むなさわぎがする! 〜ヒールズ・フォーエバー〜）は、塩出太志監督の日本映画。 占いのできない占い師、眠りに誘えない催眠術師、霊の見えない霊媒師の3人は今日もハッタリをつきながら日々を送っていた。テレビ番組で「和製ゴーストバスターズ」として取り上げれるなど人気も上々。適当な嘘で解決できなさそうな大ごとは3人で共有し、力づくで解決してきたが、今回は偶然相談者に憑りついていた悪魔を召喚してしまい、加えて魔女の怒りに触れ、3人はおばあちゃん姿にされてしまった。次々と人間に憑依する緑の女性霊や、勝手に協力体制に入り物事をややこしくする侍姿の霊「ヨシ」など、一癖も二癖もあるキャラクターが混乱に拍車をかけていく。 (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
