Even after watching "Exte" (Japanese for "Hair Extentions") I'm not sure whether it's meant as a parody or not. Maybe it isn't a parody, but it does subtly make fun of the obsession of Japanese ghost films with long hair.
A man who works in a morgue has the habit of cutting the hair off dead women and selling it as hair extensions. When the body of a murder victim is delivered whose hair is still growing rapidly after death he steals the body and keeps it at home. He now has an endless supply of hair extensions to deliver to the local hair salons. Unfortunately the hair is possessed and kills whoever wears the extensions. A young hairdressing assistant, played by the beautiful Chiaki Kuriyama, is forced to do battle with this evil force.
