Someone could definitely program their media player to make it appear as though the actors are waiting for you to press play again. Subtle rise and fall of the chest, blinking, all that.
How about just change the eyes so they occasionally randomly move. This is probably simple enough to implement as a media player plugin or browser addon that could be distributed with pirated games. Just imagine this starts happening at random. Bonus points if it spreads to your other devices.
This is the kind of malware that people should make. None of that cringe "holding your photos hostage until you send me bitcoin" nonsense.
Holy shit. It's actually a great idea.
Then install it on unsuspecting person and watch.
