Kenpei to Barabara Shibijin (憲兵とバラバラ死美人, "The Military Policeman and the Dismembered Beauty") is a 1957 black-and-white Japanese horror film directed by Kyotaro Namiki and written by Akira Sugimoto.
The film is best known for its association with the SNES game EarthBound. Its creator, Shigesato Itoi, accidentally walked in on the film as a child and mistook a murder scene for a rape scene, which traumatised him and inspired the eerie dialogue during the game's final boss battle with Giygas.[2][3]
