It's the mid-1990s. VHS tapes clutter every shelf, and late-night television hums with static and impossible promises.
Steve has never been good at relationships. Heartbreak, toxic expectations, and loneliness drive him to a midnight infomercial for the PC-2000 - a machine built to be the perfect partner. She arrives flawless, lifelike, and programmed to please. At first, she fills the void: cooking recipes straight from daytime TV, mimicking romance from worn-out tapes, and whispering exactly what he wants to hear.
But the more Steve leans on her, the stranger things become. Her smiles linger too long. Her words feel rehearsed. And when static screens and horror marathons begin to seep into reality, Steve realizes he doesn't understand the thing he's invited into his home.
Syntax Error is a haunting trip back to the VHS era, where the line between desire and dread blurs, and not every tape should be played.
