Mad SF/horror concept: Roku's Basilisk. It's a set-top box that downloads any pirate movie you can imagine as long as it doesn't already exist in *our* parallel universe. A certain subset of movies on the Basilisk are amazing—Academy award winning performances from actors who died too young or directors who never got their launch. A smaller but significant subset make you kill yourself or your friends and family.
