I counter with:

There was also a film released in 1989. In an interview, with Capcom game designer Shinji Mikami, it was stated that the game was licensed from the movie. The game and the film were released simultaneously. Sweet Home's trailer is both an advertisement for the movie, and a sales pitch for the game, as it includes footage from both.
The film and video game versions both contain duplicate copies of very specific images. Even more so, specific things, such as the fresco, the skull statue, and the tool, look exactly the same in both the film and the game. More so, the facial appearance of the character portraits in the game mirrors the look of the actors in the movie. It can therefore be assumed that the game was based on the movie (as, were it the other way around, actors who looked exactly like the character portraits in the games would need to be sought).
According to the game credits, the producer for the game is Juzo Itami, who acted in the film.
