Biography
Hinako Saeki became synonymous with Japanese horror after playing Sadako Yamamura in Rasen, released in 1998 as the sequel to the original Ring film.

Beyond Rasen, she appeared in Uzumaki (2000), the adaptation of Junji Ito's surrealist manga of the same name, and Eko Eko Azaraku: Misa the Dark Angel (1998). Her range expanded when she took on a featured role as Colonel in Mamoru Oshii's Assault Girls (2009), a science-fiction action film.

She later appeared in Ultraman X as the Underground Woman/Ryoko Mabuse, blending tokusatsu and psychological horror. As a Japanese actress, she works within a tradition of horror cinema that prizes atmospheric dread and folkloric resonance.
