Movies are awesome, right? A lot of you would agree. I would even bet a good handful of you think Japanese films are notably well-made. Hard to argue there! And there are so many unique genres! Jidaigeki, Pinku, Tokusatsu. What about Guro? An even smaller, disturbed handful of you are thinking “yeah… that’s my shit”. Guy is one of you freaks. His humble efforts began online; reviewing and discussing film in a subculture fanscape worth its own examination – the Gorehounds.
Taking cues from extreme Japanese filmmakers like Hideshi Hino (MERMAID IN A MANHOLE), Shinya Tsukamoto (the TETSUO series), Shozin Fukui (964 PINOCCHIO) and Spectacle Favorite Takashi Miike (come on now), Guy threw himself headfirst down the greasy, grimy pipeline we all love and cherish – Film Fan to Film Maker.
After leaving England for Osaka, Guy emerged on the other side: covered in entrails clutching a fistful of lovely hand-sculpted films we know you will enjoy – especially you Gorehounds. This April, we are happy to present SCULPTING FRAGMENTS: THREE FILMS, featuring the claustrophobanoid DIFFICULTY BREATHING, the creepycute buzzfest THE SOUND OF SUMMER, and the surreal found footage postcard to urbexing THE UNSOLVED LOVE HOTEL MURDER CASE INCIDENT, co-directed by friend and fellow transplant Dave Jackson (director of CAT SICK BLUES). Only at Spectacle, as usual!
