Life and career
[edit]In 1994, Yamanouchi submitted his short film Blood Red Girls (血の赤に染めろ) to the Yubari International Fantastic Film Festival, where it won the Jury Prize in the Off Theater Competition.[1] The following year, he worked as an Assistant Director under Keita Amemiya on the fantasy film, Moon Over Tao: Makaraga (タオの月, Tao no tsuki), which was released in November 1997.[2] From 1998 to 2000, Yamanouchi wrote and directed a number of straight-to-video V-cinema productions, usually involving extreme gore and horror, such as Red Room, Girl Hell 1999, Muzan-e and Dead a Go! Go!, which were later released on DVD in the United States.[3][4] These DVDs became well enough known in the United States to give Yamanouchi a mention in Alexandra Heller-Nicholas' 2011 book Rape-Revenge Films: A Critical Study.[5]
In 2002, Yamanouchi made his directorial debut in pink film, with Maria Yumeno: Chō-inran onna no shiseikatsu starring AV Idol Maria Yumeno. His 2006 pink film, Beautiful Lesbian Sisters: On the Day of Mourning... won the Best Film, 4th Place at the 2006 Pink Grand Prix ceremony.[6] He won a second award when his December 2010 film, Irokoi sata Sadako no bôken: Watashi no ai shita shôgu-tachi yo..., took the Best Film, 1st Place prize at the 2011 Pink Grand Prix ceremony.[7]
Yamanouchi also ventured a bit into the Japanese adult video (AV) field with the Global Media Entertainment studio in 2005, directing four videos in their Boshisōkan yūgi series, featuring older women and incest themes.[8][9]
In addition to his work in pink film, Yamanouchi continued writing and directing dozens of V-cinema movies, many in the horror and science fiction genres.[10] In 2014, he was the editor of Yutaka Ikejima's film about a minor actor in the Japanese adult video (AV) industry, Oyaji Actor Z (おやじ男優Z, Oyaji danyū Z).[11][12]
