A visceral urban-legend horror film centered on a grotesque, vengeful supernatural creature that hunts those who know of her existence.

The upper torso of a female, claws her way around Japan searching for her lower half. The person's lower half was severed in a train accident in Hokkaido. Anyone that hears of this story will see Teke-Teke's upper half walking aimlessly around the countryside within three days.
