Uzumaki (1998 Manga) | The Appeal of Extreme Horror

Junji Ito is renowned for being a master of modern horror, and
there’s no better example of why than his magnum opus, "Uzumaki."
In episode 325, Join Luke Elliott & James Bailey as they
discuss what compels them to seek out upsetting, disgusting, and
unnerving horror, what the band Tool has to do with spirals, the
unique strengths of comics in horror, who influenced Ito more
than anyone, his background as a dental technician, and what they
hope to see from the anime adaptation on Cartoon Network that
they’ll cover next week!
