Uzumaki - Out of this World

The inhabitants of a small Japanese town come under the influence of a strange force that causes an obsession with spiral forms. One by one, they fall under its spell, the horror manifesting itself in different ways, its geometric pattern giving snails, food, and even the swirl of fingerprints an eerie quality that drives them insane. (www.dvdtimes.co.uk) One by one, they are twisted, mentally and physically, as reality itself begins to distort into a horrific vortex... "Based on a manga written by one-person Japanese horror factory Junji Ito, UZUMAKI is both a surrealistic, hallucinatory black comedy and a thoroughly creepy exercise in Lovecraftian horror." www.horrorchannel.com
