ABOUT THE DIRECTOR:
Mototsugu Watanabe is one of the best entertainers in the world of Pink Eiga, where he is regarded as an Idol filmmaker. He was born December 2nd, 1957 in Tokyo, Japan. After graduating from the film department of Nihon University, he entered Mukai Productions (the father of Pink Eiga, Hiroshi Mukai’s production company), where he studied directing under Hiroshi Mukai, along with other future Pink Eiga directors Akira Fukamachi and Shuji Kataoka. In 1983, he debuted as a director with one episode of a film compilation. Watanabe has directed over 100 titles. In 2001, he established his own production company, Nabe Cinema. He continues to actively make very entertaining Pink Eiga films.
Watanabe’s largest influence is Japanese Idol, especially, Candies (a famous idol group in the 70’s). He always wanted to direct Idol films, which is prevalent in his style, which portrays actresses very uniquely. However, he also includes bizarre ideas in his films, and can work with various types of genres including, science fiction, horror, and action, among others. In his representative work, “Sexy Battle Girls,” he created a very unique heroine, who defeats enemies with a crazy kendama that has a dildo catcher. His films contain many bizarre scenarios, such as: a laser gun that makes people horny and a spaceship that uses semen as fuel.
Watanabe enjoys the support of many fans, and is regarded as the No.1 cult filmmaker of Pink Eiga.
