Kiyoshi Kurosawa (黒沢 清, Kurosawa Kiyoshi, born July 19, 1955)[1] is a Japanese film director, screenwriter, film critic, author, actor, and professor at Tokyo University of the Arts.

Noted for his psychological films that often focus on ambiguous narratives and on their characters' inner turmoils and quests for meaning and connections, he is best known for his contributions to psychological horror and Japanese horror, notably his acclaimed 1997 film Cure, although he has also worked in a variety of other genres. While most of his work has been in Japanese, two of his films, Daguerrotype (2016) and Serpent's Path (2024; a remake of his own 1998 film of the same name), were in French.
