The prompt

Turn my uploaded photo into a still from an imaginary late-1980s home-video horror film. Keep my face exactly as it is: same features, expression, skin and hair. I am an adult and must stay recognisable. Scene: I am standing in a dim hallway of an old house at night, holding a torch pointed slightly down. A door at the far end is open a crack with faint light behind it. Wallpaper with a faded floral print, a picture frame hanging slightly crooked. Look: VHS tape quality. Soft focus, slight colour bleed around bright edges, magenta-green colour shift, horizontal tracking lines near the bottom, gentle noise, crushed blacks and a slightly washed-out sky-blue cast in the shadows. The torch beam is the main light. Mood: suspense, not gore. No blood, no weapons, no monsters, no real film titles or characters. Format: 4:3 frame with thin black bars on the sides so it reads as an old TV picture inside a 16:9 or 4:5 post. Add a small "PLAY ▶" label in the top left in a blocky white font and nothing else. No logos, no watermark.
