Horror Movie Night 1990s Edition

What it does

This prompt instructs the AI to use the provided person’s reference photo to create a grainy, analog-looking 1990s horror-cinema portrait set in a dim movie theater, with the subject seated beside Ghostface while clearly sharing a popcorn bucket and reacting wide-eyed to the screen. It specifies wardrobe and makeup inputs, arranges multiple rows of iconic horror characters in the background for depth, and enforces constraints such as preserving the subject’s facial features, maintaining realistic screen-lit lighting and proportions, and avoiding modern additions, gore, or disturbing violence—resulting in a nostalgic, playful, cinematic still with authentic retro film texture.

Inputs

textInputs

Pass each text input using --input <key>=<value> flags.

imageInputs

This prompt requires exactly 1 image. You must pass exactly 1 image flag (no more, no fewer), in the order matching the descriptions below.

Models and options

This skill's modality is: image.

To discover which model values you can use (and which options keys/values are valid for each model), run:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Then filter the returned JSON array to entries where modality is "image".

How to run

Step 1: Collect inputs

First, run betterprompt resources --models-only --json and filter to modality: "image" to discover valid models and available options:

betterprompt resources --models-only --json

Use only the models and option values that appear in the filtered results.

Then collect all inputs from the human:

• Optional text inputs (use defaults if not provided by the human):
  • makeup (default: Soft glam makeup with pink lip gloss and pink lip liner, glowing lightly in the movie’s screen light.)
  • outfit (default: A black tank top with baggy jeans for a casual, nostalgic look.)
  • background_characters_row1 (default: Valak the Nun, Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger, and Chucky seated right behind you, watching the movie.)
  • background_characters_row2 (default: Jason Voorhees and Pennywise sitting two rows behind, also eating popcorn.)
• Required images:
  • Exactly 1 images: image 1 (Upload your photo). Images must be provided in this order.
• Optional: model and options.
  • Present the human with the default model gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview and its available options. Look up gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview in the betterprompt resources output (filtered to modality "image") and show its availableOptions as: key: val1, val2 (default), val3 | key2: .... Mark a value (default) if it matches these defaults: {}.
  • If the human does not specify, defaults are used: model gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview, options {}. Other models from the resources call are also available.

If the required images are missing, ask the human for what's missing. Do not assume or fabricate values. Tell the human: "Please provide images in this order: image 1 (Upload your photo)".

Step 2: Run via BetterPrompt CLI

Use the frontmatter's name as the positional argument (for this skill, use horror-movie-night-1990s-edition).

Command form:

betterprompt generate horror-movie-night-1990s-edition \
  [--input <key>=<value>] \
  [--image-input-url <url>] \
  [--image-input-path <path>] \
  [--model <model>] \
  [--options <options JSON>] \
  [--json]

Notes:

• Pass each text input as a separate --input <key>=<value> flag.
• Pass each image using --image-input-url or --image-input-path, in the order matching the imageInputs descriptions (image 1 first, then image 2, etc.).
• If the human does not mention a model, omit --model and BetterPrompt will use the default model: gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview.
• If the human does not mention options, omit --options and BetterPrompt will use the default options: {}.
• If the run times out, the response will include a runId you can use to fetch the result later.

Example (using defaults shown above):

betterprompt generate horror-movie-night-1990s-edition \
  --input 'makeup=Soft glam makeup with pink lip gloss and pink lip liner, glowing lightly in the movie’s screen light.' \
  --input 'outfit=A black tank top with baggy jeans for a casual, nostalgic look.' \
  --input 'background_characters_row1=Valak the Nun, Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger, and Chucky seated right behind you, watching the movie.' \
  --input 'background_characters_row2=Jason Voorhees and Pennywise sitting two rows behind, also eating popcorn.' \
  --image-input-url https://example.com/image1.png \
  --model gemini-2.5-flash-image-preview \
