In a PR maneuver that will likely prove to be significantly better than the movie it is promoting, Japanese horror icon Sadako threw out the first pitch at a Japanese baseball game on Wednesday.
The ghostly villain of Hideo Nakata's Ringu, Sadako was the long haired face of the J-horror movement and she turned up in long gown and cleats with her hair draped over her face to throw out the first pitch in a game between the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters and the Chiba Lotte Marines at the Tokyo Dome in a PR stunt for the upcoming Sadako 3D. She's an opinionated pitcher, too, shaking off a couple signs before letting one fly.
Check the video of the event out below. Sadako turns up around the 1:30 mark.
