Junji Ito’s manga series Tomie has already been made into eight movies, with a ninth on its way this year. Today we have the Japanese trailer (unfortunately sans subtitles) and poster for the latest entry, TOMIE UNLIMITED. Check ’em out below. Here is the synopsis:
Tsukiko, who belongs to a photography club at high school, always feels inferior to her elder sister, Tomie. Tomie is breathtakingly beautiful and popular among the male students, including Toshio, whom Tsukiko is secretly in love with. However, one day an awful accident kills Tomie right in front of Tsukiko. Since then Tsukiko suffers from a nightmare night after night. A year later Tsukiko and her parents are silently surrounding a birthday cake to celebrate dead Tomie’s 18th birthday. Suddenly they hear eerie knocks on their door. Unbelievably, it is Tomie. She’s back. The father and the mother blindly welcome Tomie in tears, but Tsukiko feels instinctive fear. Tomie gradually reveals her true face only when she is with Tsukiko. Now Tsukiko’s nightmare becomes reality, and the terrifying days begin…
The film is written and directed by Noboru Iguchi (THE MACHINE GIRL, ROBOGEISHA) and stars Miu Nakamura and Moe Arai (below). It will be released in Japan on May 14th.
