Description: A young girl is hospitalized. When an ultrasound examination reveals that there's something moving inside her, a surgeon operates only to find himself faced with - not a baby, but the disembodied head of a beautiful girl. Her name is Tomie, and she is in the process of regenerating herself. Though you may try, Tomie cannot be killed. She will return to seduce and to kill. The surgeon disappears, infected by Tomie's blood, leaving his daughter Yumi, to find out who Tomie is and what happened to her father.
Wonderful "Tomie" movie! This movie was great! Wowie! I have the whole Tomie Collection, and Replay was one of the most rememorable one. And personally, my 2nd favorite out of the 3! Yeah, It was that good. You don't even really have to see the first Tomie to understand this one. You don't have to do it! And that's great! You still understand what's going on. Basically, the movie is about a little girl of 6 years old has "Tomie" head in her tummy somehow, which is strange and never is explained why. And then, the people at the hospital who operated on the little girl end up dying one by one. You can probably read what the story's about. I'm not too good at explaining it, but it really was one of the best Tomie's out there! Check it out!! Btw, tomie is really pretty.
Great Movie~Especially For Fans of this Series Now I enjoyed Tomie, but Replay was 100% better than the first movie in the series. The acting, the suspense, the overall eeriness was here and a lot of that was missing from the original movie.
Even though this movie is more eerie than its predecessor, it still isn't a scary movie. Agreed, some parts are chilling, but nothing to really make you jump out of your seat. But I must praise the movie anyway, it was awesome. Tomie's evil side really does start to come out in this movie. All I can say is that every thing is better in this movie, almost no confusion haunts this movie, this movie can almost be seen without watching the first one, and it's a very stand alone movie.
Very excellent special effects. The opening scene is quite memorable. The acting was excellent as well. Watch it! Get it! You will love it, but don't expect to be scared out of your pants, because once again, you probably won't be.
creepy, but incredibly slow this was an interesting concept. i haven't seen the first tomie yet, so i didn't know what really to expect out of this. it is a really interesting and original concept. a head grows in the body of a 6 year old girl and once removed it starts sprouting its own body. everyone who comes in contact with tomie is pretty much screwed.
the story really starts off good, but continues on at a snails pace. this isn't a movie where things just pop out of nowhere which is somewhat of a relief, but there are some welcome gruesome scenes that really caught my interest, *little spoiler* such as the point where the guy who took tomie out of the hospital fell in love with tomie and when he talked to his friend tomie wanted to meet his friend. so he gets jealous and beats her to death with a telephone then drags her body into the bathroom and cuts her head off with a saw (required 2 saw blades to get all the way through).
some parts are pretty graphic which pretty much redeems it for its lack of speed. i also should have payed attention to the fact that it isn't english dubbed. you have to turn the english subtitles on in the specials menu. i didn't mind, but i know a lot of people who don't like reading that much. that is why they don't like foreign films. aside from that little complaint, check this movie out if you are into the japanese horror flicks. if not get something else.
Wow.... The first one sounded cool and I rented this one by mistake. Well it wasnt much of a story......and was kinda bland....so if you want an ok movie and you're bored out of your mind
Very tedious. Watch UZUMAKI instead. Why do people like this movie? The whole thing is silly. A six-year-old girl is admitted to the hospital with a gigantic swollen belly. The doctors start to cut her open when out pops a woman's full-grown head. And it's alive. Obviously this is not based on a true story.
They stick the head in a glass fish tank and within a few months it's grown a body. Around that time the doctors and the nurses that were in the delivery room start to disappear.
Some teenage geek who's at the hospital one night takes the girl home. He gets upset, crushes her head in with a telephone then dismembers her in the bathroom. But that's not enough to keep her down, so she reassembles herself and chases him around the apartment. Even crawling on the ceiling. Yikes! After that she chases around one of the doctor's daughter until I started to get real sleepy.
That might sound interesting , but its slow, slow, slow. The only good thing I can say about TOMIE: REPLAY is it's better than SHIKOKU. Now that was a stinker!
