Part of Paracinema Cult Film Festival
Before becoming one of Japan’s most well-known horror directors through films like Cure, Pulse and Creepy, Kiyoshi Kurosawa started off his career in horror with 1992’s The Guard from Underground, the final film of the ‘Directors Company’, a production company set up with the intention of allowing directors to fashion their visions without interference from corporate suits. Kiyoshi Kurosawa here fashions a dark tale that is both a sharp satire of corporate life and a B-movie thriller as a former sumo wrestler now working as a security guard goes on a murderous rampage in the company that’s employed him.
