DEAD GIRL WALKING


Dead Girl Walking is a 2004 Japanese horror short film directed by Koji Shiraishi and starring Ayaka Maeda, Moe Karasawa, and Yoshiyuki Morishita. The movie is the second of six short stories in a collection entitled Hideshi Hino's Theater of Horror that features different Japanese horror film directors.

After Sayuri is pronounced dead by her doctor, her body continues to function with her being able to talk and walk; however, she keeps slowly decomposing. When realizing that their daughter won't die, Sayuri's family attempts to burn her animated corpse, but she manages to run for her life. Later on, while wandering around, she meets a strange man who takes her prisoner and makes her perform at a freak show. Sayuri eventually escapes, but she doesn't get far as her parents find her and try to burn her again. She then flees again and finds refuge in an abandoned house where she hopes to finally rest in peace.
