| Shimizu on his short films: |
| |
| In 1998, I was working as an assistant director on both film and |
| video productions. I was also taking a night class in film |
| production where the teacher turned out to be Kiyoshi Kurosawa |
| (the director of CURE and KAIRO, and the executive producer of |
| JU-ON the movie). He gave us the assignment to make a 3 min short |
| from an original script. It turned out that Kurosawa like my film |
| very much,maybe because it was horror and that was to his taste. |
| |
| Actually, it's never been my intention simply to make horror films.|
| I mean, I like horror films, but I had no real ambitions to make |
| them before this assignment. |
| |
| Eventually, Kurosawa introduced me to a producer at Kansai-TV who |
| was producing a 90 min. feature for television. The title was Gakko|
| no Kaidan G (School Ghost Story G). G is supposed to mean "Great". |
| Maybe the producer came up with the title to compete with Dragon |
| Ball Z, I don't know (laughs). It was going to be a horror |
| anthology and I was assigned to write and direct. |
| |
| But because I had no previous professional directorial experience, |
| the producer had no confidence in me. I wrote many scripts for 30 |
| minute segments but the producer asked me to direct two and to cut |
| them down to 3 minutes. I wondered, how can I scare the audience |
| in so short a time (laughs)? But those two short segments that I |
| made are actually the foundations of JUON. They lay out the basic |
| premise of the curse and it is almost like the true prequel of the |
| story. |
