Tomie: Beginning
2005, Japanese. Directed by Ataru Oikawa.
I'll show you what Hell is really like
Within days after the mysterious new student Kawakami Tomie joins a high school classroom, all hell literally breaks loose. Simple in-fighting between boys and girls over Tomie's oppressive shadow soon gives way to mind-breaking violence, culminating in a grizzly dissection that ultimately leads to suicide, insanity, and even more violence.
