Editorial Review: Product Description: From the land that brought us RINGU (The Ring) comes UZUMAKI (Spiral). The inhabitants of a small Japanese seaside town come under the influence of a strange force that causes an obsession with spiral forms. One by one, the townspeople 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 the inhabitants of Kurozou gradually insane. Kirie, a young schoolgirl, is the first to notice the strange behavior in friends and neighbors and is powerless to prevent the obsession that is overwhelming everyone around her. In one or two cases the victims fall prey to the spiral through their own weaknesses a student who is always late to school starts exhibiting signs of unnatural snail-like growths on his body, while another exhibitionist student finds herself the centre of a spiral of attention. Eventually the townspeople begin descending on a self-inflicted and self-perpetuating spiral of terror. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Japanese Horror? Maybe.When I purchased this movie, I thought that it was going to be a great Japanese horror movie. It turned out to be just weird and a little creepy, not really scary and gory like I was hoping, but its definitely something I have never seen before. Rating:  - Like Taking the Book and Flipping Through the Pages and Tearing Some Out Here & ThereMost of this movie was, if not true to the manga, at least close enough to satisfy considering the crossover from book to movie.

The chapter he appears in in the book is called Jack in the Box, and appropriately enough, he becomes one when he ...

If you want to see something that that defies those conventions, along with often substituting fantasy for realism (though there is still some typical teen-oriented human drama in there) you will enjoy this film. Rating:  - no stars and why is it classed as a horror movie?I don't get all the rave reviews here.After watching for an hour and a half all i saw was guy with brains open after falling through a stairwell.So no horror at all.It is not even sinister-just a few people vaguely concerned about something vaguely concerning spirals eg;The obessive man who collects spiral objects-his wife throws them out the house and he's not even that upset!!i have patience for the subtle but nothing going on here and i'm somewhat irritated this got classed in the horror section.I ... Read More Rating:  - Strange And Bizarre Spirals!Having purchased this DVD four years ago, I recently viewed it again. Strangely, I liked it even more than the first time I watched it. Maybe it was the mood I was in? And mood is everything with this Japanese film: based on the manga by Junji Ito. The film centers on a small town where an evil, in the shape of a spiral, enters the town causing madness and eventually death. This is a very atmospheric film and may not appeal to all viewers. What I found fascinating about the film was how ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
