The AI adaptation of Hideshi Hino's Living Corpse is a peculiar work. First, it's a feature length film. This makes me wonder what the budget for the film is. People on Twitter talk about spending thousands, but they could only generate a five minute video. Since this is a feature length film, it must be pretty costly.
Strangely, even though the voice actors are Japanese (Hiroshi Tamura, Shigeru Saiki, Hinako Saeki, Shiro Sano, Tsuyoshi Toshiki, and Junji Ito), it's in English. I'm not sure why they didn't use an AI voice bank to produce Japanese voices. Perhaps they're trying to secure a brief American theatrical release.
I'm wondering how the credits are going to look going by the website the only humans are the Voices, the Actor Models, The director:Takeshi Sone and the producer. Are they the prompters or were there others who helped touched up the film?
Judging by the AI credits it still looks like a far cry of just having one tool be used to make a film much less a full length feature:
Script: ChatGPT
Video Creation: Kling, Higgsfield, Veo, Sora, Dreammachine, Domo, Runway
Image Creation: Midjourney, Flux, Nanobanana, Seedream, Lovart, Freepik
Sound & Effects: Elevenlabs, FishAudio
Music: Suno
If it does get an American release I'll check it out. I've seen worse human made movies and the trailer looks like the quality is just above a Z grade movie.
