This Harry Potter movie wouldn’t be suitable for kids, like, at all.

Imagine a world where Harry isn't just a wizard, but a slasher, with his wand as his weapon and vengeance in his heart. Sounds intriguing, right? Well, thanks to the AI again, we can take a peek into this alternate Potterverse.

A video was posted on the YouTube channel Yellow Medusa that gives us a taste of what our favorite characters might look like if they were dropped into a Rodriguez movie.

The video opens with a dramatic voiceover, setting the stage for a showdown like never before. By the way, the voiceover was also made using AI.

Harry is portrayed as a slasher, a survivor of the deadliest curse, now out for justice. Spells are for amateurs, according to this version of Harry. Instead, he's recommended a classic 12-gauge with silver bullets.

And it's not just Harry who's got a makeover. Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, and a bunch of misfit wizards join him on this thrilling journey.

They're up against the usual suspects — Voldemort, Dementors, and giant spiders. But there's a twist. This time, they're also dealing with vampires, demons, and other dark creatures.

What if this movie really happened? Firstly, it would be a radical departure from the original series. But is it a bad thing? The Harry Potter we know is a tale of magic, friendship, and the triumph of good over evil. This version, however, would be a darker, grittier, and more action-packed adventure.

The characters we've grown to love would take on new dimensions. Harry, for instance, would no longer be the innocent, brave wizard. Instead, he'd be a hardened slasher, seeking revenge and justice. Hermione and Ron, too, would likely be more battle-hardened and ready for action.

The villains would be more terrifying, with the addition of vampires and demons to the usual roster of Dementors and Death Eaters. And the battles would be more intense, with our heroes wielding not just wands, but guns loaded with silver bullets.

Just remember From Dusk Till Dawn, directed by Rodriguez and imagine Harry Potter in this world. That is exactly what we need — fresh stories about already beloved characters in entirely new settings.
