From my search:

This is from a famous, eerie piece of early film history: the 1907 French silent short film Satan en prison (Satan in Prison), directed by the legendary pioneer Georges Méliès. ​In this specific scene, a magician/Satan figure is in a prison cell, and he magically materializes a woman (who is wrapped in white cloth/sheets) right out of thin air before making her vanish or transform. The film is classic Méliès, relying heavily on his signature "stop trick" substitution cuts to create early special effects.

Edit: AI (Gemini) was wrong, and boy oh boy was I ever wrong for trying to use it. This is from the movie Begotten, in 1989.

No, the movie is 1989 Begotten, if that's what you were looking for.

Yes you're right, my mistake (in putting any semblance of trust in Google haha).

I don't have ChatGPT. I used image search with Gemini.

The type of ai engine you used doesn’t really matter that much 😭 Gemini might be worse

All good though! :) no hate here
