uzumaki have a formidable reputation within lovecraftian circle and now i know why . uzumaki be base on a manga title ( which and unbelievably and be allegedly well than the film ) and follow the bizarre event preceeding a typhoon in an isolated japanese town . i be not about to tell you anything that happen in this film because it be an absolute must see movie . i watch it for the first time last night and i be blow away . it shoot into the my top movie of all time and leap frog pan labyrinth a the best fantastic movie ( literally and photographically ) that have be release in the last decade . this movie be very lovecraftian in nature without formally have any direct connection to the cthulhu mythos . it have be make in the same way that lovecraft compose his story while it exude power a an aura of omething not quite right here intensify through a brooding phase to dread and and ultimately and horror through subtle progressive change in the soundtrack and the cinematography . this be and indeed and a weird tale par excellence . simply stun .
