I just saw the movie in a secret screening. There are full gen AI scenes, mostly towards the end, though you can defo see it used to enhance certain kill scenes. The practical sfx in the movie are actually great. I don't understand why the decision was made to spoil the film with AI slop!

Eli Roth admits he used generative AI in his new horror movie Ice Cream Man

Roth tells Polygon he previously "misspoke," confirming generative AI was used in a small portion of the upcoming horror film.

I am delighted to publicly reveal the cover artwork for my upcoming series, MEMORIES OF FIRE! It includes dragons like you've never seen before, meddling gods, flintlock vibes, and an animal companion MEMORIES OF FIRE is an adult epic fantasy quartet, and my most ambitious series yet!

A young man with a pied crow on his shoulder and a glaive on his back walks through the ruins of a battlefield. Blackened swords and arrows litter the ground and ash rains down from above. A god-killing Reaper dragon flies in front of him and stares out at us, flames in its jaws. This is the cover art for the upcoming Memories of Fire - an epic fantasy quartet. Book 1, Faithless Gods, will release at the end of 2026
