Dead End Run is a 2003 film directed by Japanese cult film director Sogo Ishii, notable for Ishii's trademark flashy visual style.
The film has little plot to speak of, but is instead divided into three short episodes, each of which opens with a man desperately running away before being trapped in a dead end, where something out-of-the-ordinary occurs. The episodes include a musical number, a Mexican stand-off and a police pursuit.

Famous quotes containing the words dead and/or run:
“an endless wind
Whips at the headstones of the dead and wails
In the trees for all who have and have not sinned.”
—Anthony Hecht (b. 1923)
“they filled his belly
with large stones and sewed him up.
He was as heavy as a cemetery
and when he woke up and tried to run off
he fell over dead. Killed by his own weight.
Many a deception ends on such a note.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
