"Coerte Voorhees stated, 'We are 100 per cent confident it's really the right move with this specific film, and we're really, really looking forward to everyone being able to judge it for themselves.'"
"The line, 'Don't fear the dead. And don't fear me,' delivered by the AI-generated character, quickly sparked a backlash on social media, with commenters branding it 'terrifying' and 'disgusting.'"
"Despite the criticism, Coerte Voorhees believes audiences will be unable to discern that the performance is not human, aiming to demonstrate a responsible application of AI."
Filmmakers Coerte and John Voorhees defended their use of AI to create a performance by the late Val Kilmer in 'As Deep as the Grave.' They secured permission from Kilmer's children and utilized archival materials to craft his digital portrayal. Despite backlash on social media regarding the AI-generated character, the filmmakers believe audiences will not notice the difference. They aim to showcase a responsible application of AI in the film industry, adhering to established guidelines and addressing concerns over unauthorized use of actors' images.
