Everything is turning into spirals, from a strange whirlwind, billowing smoke from the crematorium, and the residents of Kuouzu-cho. People’s eyes spin in whirls, a tongue spirals, and the bodies twist unnaturally. In an attempt to escape the curse of the spirals, high school girl Kirie decides to flee from her hometown, but can she get away from this turmoil?
Aki Itami (“Mushi-Shi”) penned the mini series, with Hiroshi Nagahama and Yûji Moriyama directing. Colin Stetson (Hereditary, Texas Chainsaw Massacre) composed the score.
Daniel Kurland wrote in this review, “‘Uzumaki’ somehow surpasses the unreasonable expectations that have hung over it since its announcement and it’s a triumph in absolutely every regard. It’s a visual masterpiece that’s an intense, terrifying, one of a kind experience.”
