Rena Murakami (村上 麗奈 Murakami Rena?, Cantonese Yale: Chyun1 Seung5 Lai6 Noi6) is a Japanese actress and former AV idol.

Life and career

After beginning her career as a gravure idol, Murakami made her adult video (AV) debut in the March 1988 h.m.p. Miss Christine release, Hatsujō Kansen (発情感染?).[2] In December of her debut year she also had a role in Toei's mainstream drama release, Koiko no mainichi (恋子の毎日?).[3]

In addition to continuing her AV career, Murakami had another role in a mainstream drama, appearing in Bandai Visual's Shin dōtei monogatari: Hong Kong virgin boy (新・童貞物語 ホンコンバージンボーイ?) in March 1990.[4] Also in 1990 she appeared in pioneering pink film director/producer Kan Mukai's Code Name 348: Onna keiji sashiba (コードネーム348 女刑事 サシバ?).[5] Also during this period, she had roles in a number of softcore V-Cinema films.[6]

Following her adult videos' popularity in Hong Kong, she moved there around 1990 or 1991 to work as a stripper.[7] She then shifted to cinema. Her first film of success was Category III classic Sex and Zen in 1991. In a review of the DVD release of Sex and Zen, a reviewer described her as one of "Asian cinema's most beautiful actresses".[8] Around 1993, she moved back to Japan. She worked at the famous Asakusa strip theatre Rokku-za (ロック座). She caused a minor scandal when news leaked that she had sex with the Sultan of Brunei during his visit to Japan in 1993.[9][10]

In 1997 she produced and starred in the pink film Murakami Rena: kyūkyoku meigizuma (村上麗奈 究極名器妻?), through Runa Films.[11][12] The film was distributed theatrically by XCes, scripted by pink film actress Kiyomi Itō, and directed by Satoru Kobayashi,[13] director of the first pink film, Flesh Market (1962).[14] The film was re-issued in June 2003 as 村上麗奈 極上けいれん妻.[15] More recently, Murakami had a small part in the November 2008 Japanese comedy, Serial Dad (小森生活向上クラブ Komori seikatsu kōjō kurabu?).[16]
