I gotta assume that The Unknown is specificially the result of the Tom and Jerry Wonka movie being fed into ChatGPT, because Cartoon Slugworth kinda is a demon living in Wonka's walls in this thing.

Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory features a scene in which an oompa-loompa mouse recites the scary tunnel speech whilst taking Tom and Jerry through said tunnel.
Does that mean that everyone who works there does it? Is it some kind of adapted Loompaland ritual? A morale-boosting chant that everyone on the boat usually does together? The world's most garbled mandatory boat safety lecture?

Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (2017)
There’s only one way to prevent yourself from falling into utter, absolute despair while watching Tom and Jerry” Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory - the biggest argument against the public domain since Night of the Living Dead: Reanimated. If, for reasons no humans could ever fathom, you take one look at the cover of this wretched excuse for a film and you say “I'm in!”, then please, do it while surrounded by friends who will help tear it apart and ensure that no children are within earshot. There isn’t one second of the 79-minute running time that validates this picture’s existence.
Poor, kind Charlie Bucket (voiced by Lincoln Melcher) lives in a small house with his mother and four grandparents. When legendary candy maker Willy Wonka (JP Karliak) announces he has hidden five golden tickets in his legendary Wonka Bars, and that the children who find them will be allowed access to his mysterious factory, our hero dreams of finding one for himself. Oh, and classic cartoon characters Tom and Jerry (both voiced by Spike Brandt) tag along for the ride when he does.
Step 1: Take a beloved classic like 1971’s Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and force a bunch of passionless overseas animators to copy it scene-for-scene. Step 2: Rob it of all magic or wonder. Step 3: crowbar Tom and Jerry in a way that adds nothing to the plot, but instead robs the story of key scenes by focussing on characters who require no lip-synch. Step 4: Profit by sending this soulless cash grab to negligent parents, aunts, and uncles. The disdain is as thick as stone. There aren’t even any original songs. The closest we get is a slight tweak on Violet Beauregard’s number with the villainous Slugworth (Mick Wingert) adding some new lines… an action that makes no sense once you’ve seen the story’s finale. If this had been an adaptation of… I dunno, Scarface, it would've still been a bad idea, but it might have served some purpose. Children aren’t meant to see the ultra-violent Al Pacino film. There isn’t anyone in the history of the world who should see this blight upon cinema rather than the original.
The people responsible for this catastrophe do not care about children, do not like children and they’re probably the ones who broke into your home last summer to steal all your stuff. They robbed me of my time and money, so I wouldn’t put it past director Spike Brandt to have done it before.
The good news is that if you can forget some people will subject their children to this and watch it as something aimed towards adults, there’s plenty to laugh at. The animation is appalling, with character models hardly ever staying consistent from shot to shot. The lip-synch is ok at best, the movements clunky and unnatural. The facial expressions by Wonka are… wow. It’s like the man’s face is made of uncooked dough. You'll laugh and groan listening to the inane dialogue. Your hands will automatically fly up to plug your ears or perhaps wipe away tears whenever a song in this pathetic excuse for a musical begins playing. Between then, if you can screen-grab successfully, you'll be an internet hero as you churn out one golden meme after another.
In 2017, Mel Stuart's Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory entered the public domain. This allowed this film to be made. Many times, I've heard people complain about the Walt Disney Company's iron grip on their films. Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is singlehandedly worth any palm-greasing, bribery, or blackmail the Mouse might've done to ensure the diabolical pair keep their paws off of more beloved children's films. (On DVD, September 15, 2017)

Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
I like the segment where Slugworth is singing and you can absolutely tell it's all hand drawn and the animators were having a blast doing it. Just as much as Slugworth's VA.
It's a nice addition even the whole parts of displaying Charlie's kindness.
Nice weaving itself into canon while adding to it, not gonna lie.

LOL i DON’t KNOW (i DON’t CARE)
I’m sure they’re fine...maybe.
An old “meme” I drew back in 2018. That face Wonka is making is a direct reference to this: www.imdb.com/title/tt6803390/m…, you’re welcome.
Also, JSYK these are their old designs: https://artmakerproductions.tumblr.com/post/640686874786201601/old-charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory-art-from#notes
