Pulse

Pulse is, in my mind, the pinnacle of the J-horror wave in the late ’90s and early ’00s. It is part of Kurosawa’s early explorations into the apocalypse, which also include Cure (1997) and the criminally underseen Charisma (1999).

Cure

Not just a key figure in the emergence of the J-horror movement, Kiyoshi Kurosawa is also a contender for the most important filmmaker in all of Japanese horror history.
