![]() ![]() This Asian Horror had a lot of good going for it, but unfortunantly failed to really pull me in. It might be worth seeing for a few select scenes, but otherwise Uzumaki is an eccentric but mediocre horror movie. Because it's not consistently scary or funny, it just occupies this middle ground that means it's not weird or bad enough to be so bad it's good, but also not good enough to be a creepy horror movie. It's more campy than scary, but it's not always very funny because it seems to take itself somewhat seriously despite its exaggerated special effects and plot. Unfortunately, the weirdness of the premise doesn't really amount to that much. The spirals eventually take over their lives and cause strange supernatural occurrences, including more than few bodies being contorted into spiral shapes. The plot focuses on the small Japanese town of Kurozu-cho, where people are becoming increasingly fixated on and obsessed with spiral patterns. Uzumaki is a bizarre horror movie that ends up being more funny than scary, thanks largely to its ridiculous special effects that are too over-the-top to be taken seriously. ![]()
