Bizarre and entertaining.

"Uzumaki" takes place in a small Japanese rural town,where people are going mad.They go nuts over vortexes and spirals.The crisis is getting worse,because people are turning into snails and vortexes appear everywhere."Uzumaki" has to be one of the most bizarre and original horror movies I have seen.The plot is really clever and the gore scenes are really funny as the film doesn't takes itself too seriously."Uzumaki" is wonderfully photographed and the use of colors is top-notch.The characters are likeable and there is enough shocking surprises to satisfy fans of Japanese horror.Despite of some hilarious scenes,the overall tone of this film is pretty dark."Uzumaki" is not as good as "Ringu","Ju-on" or "Audition",but if you like Japanese horror movies you won't be disappointed.7 out of 10.

Watch Your Sanity Spin Out of Control

Uzumaki (that's Japanese for "spiral" or "vortex") is one of the most absurd films I've ever watched. A town becomes obsessed and then all-consumed by the vortex pattern in some very grotesque ways. Fingertips are cut off, people commit suicide in washing machines... just wild and crazy Japanese horror. Possibly as psychologically damaging as "The Ring". Generally not as scary as "The Eye", but the imagery in this is more sickening than most of the things in "The Eye". And not as gory as "The Untold Story"... but that isn't to say there isn't a fair amount of blood and dismemberment. Seriously, if you enjoy horror films and especially Asian horror - you must add this film to your list. A few parts are a little odd with the sound effects (the story is adapted from a manga comic and it shows),but it really fits. Unlike some films that try too hard to capture the original source ("House of the Dead") this one does it perfectly. The most original film you will see... not just this year, but probably ever. Recommended!

Really not likable enough.

There were countless problems I had with this movie. I didn't liked its style, wasn't fond of its story, not impressed with its horror or comedy. But still the biggest problem I had with this movie was that it felt like a very distantly made one, which prevented me from ever getting into it, which is, you could say, a direct result, of all of the problems I had with this movie.

First of all, I don't even really know what this movie was supposed to be. At first it gets presented as a comedy but after a while it drops this and it starts to become a more conventional Japanese horror movie. Which brings me to another problem; its horror.

No, horror-wise there wasn't a lot to enjoy about this movie. No good scares, no true originality with any of it and not a good buildup to it all. This movie could had used a a creepy kind of atmosphere but instead it more has a quirky and at times even artistic approach to things.

But all that its artistic approach consists out off, are a couple of unusual camera-angles, which personally, only annoyed me and distracted too much from the movie. It made the movie different but just unfortunately never in a good way.

I just couldn't ever care about anything that was happening in this movie. I admit that it didn't help an awful lot that the movie has such a confusing and unusual story in it. It's hard to follow and perhaps this is a movie that requires multiple viewings but I'm sorry, I am never going to see it again.

Not that I hated this movie or found anything about it truly bad or offensive but this is not a movie I enjoyed watching, or got anything else out off. In short; nothing about it is likable or interesting enough to make me care about it.

5/10
