Interesting facts
Rubber's Lover (ラバーズ・ラバー) is a 1996 black and white Japanese cyberpunk-horror film written and directed by Shozin Fukui.
Production
Fukui began preparations for Rubber's Lover directly after the release of 964 Pinocchio.
Filming was planned to be completed within one month, but took six months due to unforeseen budget and preparation issues. The warehouse in which filming took place was originally rented for another of Fukui's projects, however was repurposed to film Rubber's Lover after the initial project was cancelled. Rubber's Lover took five years to complete.
During filming, the crew were prohibited from speaking in order to create a feeling of separation for the actors, which Fukui described as being "very hard for staff and cast.".
