A Psychological AI Horror Short Film
DISTORTED COPY is a psychological AI horror short film about John, a man trapped inside an abandoned hospital simulation where his fear, memories, and identity are being recorded by an artificial intelligence system. As the system tries to build Bet, an incomplete human-like copy of him, the environment begins to hallucinate and collapse. John realizes that the AI can copy his face, voice, and fear, but it cannot understand compassion or human choice. His final act of empathy breaks the fear loop and exposes the limit of the machine.
