Tomie
Tomie Will Not Die.
Directed by Ataru Oikawa
Produced by Daiei Film, Art Port
A dark, supernatural horror mystery that weaves trauma, resurrection, and obsessive love into a tale of an unkillable entity haunting the living.
Following some trauma in her past that has since been repressed, a young woman is trying to recover her memories with the help of a psychiatrist. During her hypnosis sessions, she repeats the name "Tomie" but is unable to recall where she knows it from. Meanwhile, a police detective is investigating a string of brutal murders, where he also runs across the name "Tomie." How are the two connected?
