Angel Dust (1994): Cast & Plot

On the crowded streets of Tokyo, a chilling pattern emerges: a fresh victim appears every Monday at 6 pm on a packed subway train, killed by a hypodermic needle delivering rhodotoxin. In response, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department enlists Dr. Setsuko Suma Kaho Minami, a forensic psychiatrist whose extraordinary talent lets her inhabit the killer’s thoughts and emotions by connecting with the victims’ bodies. Through her methodical examinations, she identifies a shared thread among the slain—an intense sense of self-destruction and isolation that ties the victims to a darker, unseen force. The trail points to a calculated predator who seems to know the first victim, Yumiko, rather than a random attacker.
