    “It’s slow and deliberately paced, but the eerie vibe and Miho Kanno’s unsettling performance as Tomie make it a worthwhile watch for fans of atmospheric J-horror.”

Reviews from Letterboxd

  1. ryancurtis★★★☆☆
    “While it doesn’t quite reach the same level of dread as the first Tomie film, this one does manage to make the most out of its episodic structure. Tomie remains as alluring and unsettling as ever.”

  2. alex★★★½
    “Low-budget but atmospheric. Each segment gives a different perspective on Tomie’s curse, and Runa Nagai’s performance is memorable. There’s something uniquely creepy about how the horror unfolds.”

  3. sallyjaned★★★☆☆
    “I liked the psychological horror elements more than the gore. It’s an uneven ride, but there are moments that really shine, especially when it leans into surrealism.”

  4. vhsgraveyard★★½☆
    “The three-episode structure makes it feel more like a TV anthology than a movie, which is both a strength and a weakness. Tomie’s regenerating horror is still chilling, though.”

  5. cam_plays★★★☆☆
    “This installment is quieter and more introspective than others. It’s not as scary, but it captures the tragic undertone of Tomie’s story better than some of the later sequels.”

Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. CinemaOmnivore★★★☆☆
    “Not quite as chilling as the original, but the premise of a regenerating femme fatale still works. The hospital scenes are a creepy highlight.”

  2. yukino★★★★☆
    “I love how gross and bizarre this one is. Tomie as a medical horror story is honestly one of the more disturbing interpretations.”

  3. JasonXGore★★★½
    “This sequel does a good job continuing the mythos. It’s not as stylish as the first film, but it leans more into the body horror and that’s a win.”

  4. oxblood★★★☆☆
    “Slow burn but satisfying. The imagery of Tomie’s head growing out of a tumor is nightmare fuel.”

  5. kagemaru★★½☆☆
    “Has some good moments, but overall lacks the intensity or creativity of the first movie. Still, fans of Ito’s weirdness will enjoy it.”

Letterboxd Reviews:

  1. Dave Jackson – ★★★½
    “Tomie: Re-birth is not amazing, but it’s a big step up from the mediocre Replay. Shimizu handles the characters and story much, much better. It flows at an even pace, and has some properly demented highlights (the walking head with gnarled tiny arms, the hair-covered funeral).”

  2. Ryan McSwain – ★★★★
    “Re-birth is less dreamlike than Tomie and Replay. Miki Sakai delivers an excellent performance as Tomie, and the rest of the cast really pulled me in.”

  3. Drew Gallagher – ★★★½
    “A very slow start that gets much better once you’re able to differentiate the 3 main boys and their arcs. Before that it’s a tad too confusing, but does eventually hit a stride. Acting wise some of the boys go all in and one of them keeps it muted. I liked this version of Tomie, she nailed the creepy chic vibe very well.”

Tomie: Forbidden Fruit (2002) 


Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. rachel_h_★★★☆☆
    “A more lowkey entry in the Tomie series, but there’s something hypnotic about it. The relationship between the two Tomies is handled with a weird tenderness that turns very dark. Creepy but oddly poetic.”

  2. lordofthedeathtouch★★★☆☆
    “This one leans hard into the melancholic and dreamy tone. Less gore than other entries, but the underlying dread still simmers. The father-daughter angle adds another layer of horror.”

  3. digitalsoju★★½☆☆
    “Fascinating in concept, but the pacing drags. Still, there’s something eerie and unique about seeing the story unfold as a more psychological horror.”

  4. Astro-Zombie★★★☆☆
    “Not the best in the series, but it has a haunting vibe. The lead performances are solid, especially Aoi Miyazaki. Quiet horror with a tragic tone.”

  5. artificialnights★★☆☆☆
    “I wanted more of the trademark surreal terror from Tomie stories. This one felt more like a sad love story with horror tacked on. Still interesting, but not as chilling.”

  1. muzzledwolf★★★☆☆
    “Creepy in a subtle way. Loved the slow build and how Tomie’s curse seeps into the lives of the characters.”

    “Not the best in the Tomie series, but still has that eerie, dreamlike vibe that sticks with you.”

  4. msladyshelley★★½☆☆

Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. chloëgracedespair★☆☆☆☆
    “definitely not the strongest entry in the tomie franchise but still has that strange charm to it. tomie feels less like a seductive force of chaos and more like a ghost here.”

  2. sweaterpunk★★☆☆☆
    “this was okay? not bad, not great. some of the effects are good and I always like seeing tomie on screen, but it didn’t really go anywhere new.”

  3. gabrielguedes★★★☆☆
    “A decent continuation of the Tomie saga. The horror is subtle but the atmosphere is creepy. Not as disturbing as others in the series but enjoyable.”

Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. Dave Jackson – ★★
    “Tomie vs Tomie is excruciatingly boring. Long scenes of exposition that do little to help its baffling storyline. It feels so much longer than its pathetic running time. The versus aspect is a mess, the mannequin factory setting is wasted, and the lead actor has the worst haircut I’ve seen in a while.”

  2. Jae Bearhat – ★½
    “Not enough Tomie versus Tomie action, or even really living up on the potential of a reverse Tomie where they become psychotically attached to a guy who is simply not into them. The reveals of why, and all the dumb lore gets in the way of any of the interesting psychological or body horror elements of Tomie.”

  3. Brian2359 – ★★½
    “I had heard that a lot of the Tomie movies missed the mark, and this one is definitely the weakest I’ve seen so far. I didn’t hate it, but it never really developed into something I cared about. The plot centers around enchanted men doing a bunch of dumb things for women who aren’t what they claim to be.”

  4. BjorkShandy – ★★
    “Tomie Vs Tomie has a truly bizarre story that is unfortunately not as entertaining as you might think. The title of the film might lead you to believe that Tomie is going to have an epic duel against another Tomie, Freddy Vs Jason style but the title is very misleading.”

  5. hotsake – ★★½
    “A little different than the other films but there’s just something missing that kept this from being better.”

Reviews from Letterboxd:

  1. robyn★★★★
    “Once again an absolute delight from the Tomie franchise. More blatant gore than its predecessors and sometimes feels like the most Junji Ito vibes out of all of them. Surrealist imagery works so well with manga composition come to life.”

  2. daniel★★★½
    “What a weird and wacky film. Some of the effects are gross in the best ways, and the tone constantly switches between serious and hilariously over-the-top. Not for everyone, but I loved the chaotic energy.”

  3. andrewd★★★★
    “Iguchi turns this entry into a bloody fever dream. It’s unpredictable, nasty, and absurd, but that’s exactly what I want from a Tomie film. The ending is bonkers.”

  4. maddy★★★
    “Not the best of the Tomie adaptations but definitely the most unique. It leans way more into body horror and grotesque visuals than psychological terror.”

  5. fushi★★★½
    “Felt like Evil Dead meets Junji Ito. Completely unhinged in a fun way. Would have liked a bit more psychological dread, but the visuals were top-tier gross.”


Meta Description:
