Tomie: Beginning is a 2005 Japanese horror film directed by Ataru Oikawa (Tomie 1999) and starring Rio Matsumoto as Tomie, Asami Imajuku, and Kenji Mizuhashi.
This sixth installment in the Tomie film series is a prequel to the 1999 film. The film is based on Junji Ito's manga Tomie. The movie is basically the set of events that took place right before the first film. Tomie, appears at the beginning of the film as a new transfer student, as is common in her, she starts enchanting all the boys, and raising the wrath in all of the girls. Soon, Tomie becomes friends with Reiko, one of the girls in her class, who appears to be sympathetic to Tomie's alienation. As in the previous film, Tomie and her friend seem to share a lesbian-like relationship. It doesn't take too long until Tomie starts to show her typical charming powers over males, thus making them understand that the only way to get rid of their hex is to kill Tomie. Years later, at a class reunion, the eyed-patched guy that appears in the 1999 film Tomie will be introduced and everyone will know how it all began.
