Hisayasu Satō

Hisayasu Satō (佐藤 寿 保 Satō Hisayasu, born August 15, 1959 in Shizuoka , Japan ) is a Japanese director. He is best known as a director of pink films with a focus on body horror . His most famous works include The Bedroom (1992), Love - Zero = Infinity (1994), Naked Blood (1996) and Rampo Noir (2005). His trademarks include the so-called "sledgehammer film technique", in which he includes ignorant passers-by in the scene, and his - unusual for Pink films - often serious and existential topics. Together with Kazuhiro Sano , Toshiki Satō and Takahisa Zeze he is known as one of the "Four Heavenly Kings of Pink" (ピ ン ク 四 天王 pinku shitenno).

Film career

Satō began his career in the mid-1980s with Pink films, which cover topics such as obsessions, alienation, voyeurism, rape, sodomy and sadomasochism. He was also one of the earliest pink directors in the so-called "rose-pink" subgenre, which deals with homosexuality. To date, he has directed over 60 films. After the turn of the millennium, films were rarely released that, strictly speaking, no longer fall into the pink genre, although they deal with similar topics.
