Yup. A girl ramming her head into a knife is totally Higurashi. @Dark_Web: consider [accepting the answer](http://meta.stackexchange.com/questions/5234/how-does-accepting-an-answer-work) if you think it helped.

<p>Never got to watch the anime itself but saw a short 2-minute clip on a profile on Facebook like 8 years back, and never got to follow up on it.</p>

<p>From what I remember:</p>

<ul>
<li>It's about a girl who tortures people in her home. </li>
<li>I remember a scene where this girl almost escapes with a knife, tries to get out the door but is cornered and gets tazed.</li>
<li>She jams her own head into the knife, exclaiming that she won't allow the girl to be the one to kill her. </li>
</ul>

<p>Pretty gruesome, I know, but I've wanted to watch it for over a year and just can't find out what it is...</p>
