Director of Kurokami yasha

[Roger Macy]

Some help, please, on silent-era directors.
In the journal 'Close Up' for March 1929, there was a piece written by 'J. Shige Sudzuky'.  He later made further contributions under this name, and there seems no doubt that this is SUZUKI shigekichi 鈴木重吉, who is clearly the same director as IMDb's 'shigeyoshi Suzuki'.
One of the stills accompanying the article is of "Yoshiko Kawada, a Japanese star in The Black-haired Demon, a film by J. Shige Sudzuky."  But, of the 120 odd films in which 川田芳子 starred according to JMDb, NONE were made by Suzuki.  Kawada did, however star in a 1926 trilogy: 黒髪夜叉  which I read as Kurokami yasha, and which translates perfectly well as 'Black-haired demon'.
The director of Kurokami yasha according to JMDb is 大久保忠素.  I don't recognise this name and tentatively read it as Ōshii hochūsō.

The correct reading of this name would be appreciated, together with any background.  I have a rough photocopy of the still, available on request to macyroger at yahoo.co.uk
I also have some other queries related to stills attributed to 'Sudzuky'.
Happy holiday,
Roger Macy
