Hell Grind is a Higgsfield Originals film from 2026, billed in its title as the world's first AI feature film; its story opens with orphans visiting their old home and promising to build a better one someday. A heist brings them an artifact and the first monster attack, and after Lulu is taken through a portal, WEDA offers Roko a deal for three artifacts, which leads through training and a monastery in Tibet. Roko then leaves the crew to go after Lulu alone, and the film ends with a last fight between him and his friends.
