It is not long before the tire town is infected by the otherworldly spirals. Tamura, a reporter, is intrigued by Shuichi's father's suicide and becomes obsessed with the case. Meanwhile, Shuichi's mother, who has be in hospital since her husband's death, has developed a severe phobia of spirals. She cuts off her hair and fingertips due to their spiral-like shapes, and Shuichi tells the hospital staff to eliminate anything spiral-shaped so his mother may not counter them. One night, after a millipede tries to crawl into her ear while she is asleep, Shuichi's mother, the ctipede claims to be her husband and turns into a spiral, driving her to commit suicide.
At Kirie's high school, a studt named Katayama begins to walk at a snail's pace, dripping in a slimy substance and only attding school on rainy days. He and other members of the studt body gradually begin to sprout shells, drink water in copious amounts, and crawl on the walls of the school. Kirie's classmate, Sekino, begins to grow her hair in exaggerated curls, taking over her mind and the minds of other female studts. Whirl-like clouds appear in the sky, and during funerals, they are accompanied by smoky, ghost-like faces of victims who perished in spiral-related ways.
Evtually, the tire town succumbs to the curse of the spiral—Kirie's father takes a drill to his eye after obsessively creating spiral shaped ceramics; a news crew reporting on the phomon lose themselves in a tunnel, only to be later found as humanoid yet snail-like corpses; and Sekino's snake-like curls grow to an abnormal height, wrapping around a telephone pole and cables electrocuting herself. A boy named Mitsuru who is obsessed with Kirie to be his girlfrid throws himself in front of Inspector Tamura's car and is twisted around the axle; the car collides with a pole, causing Tamura's head to hit the windshield, leaving a spiral-shaped crack. Wh Kirie and Shuichi decide to search for Kirie's father, Shuichi's body twists into a spiral-like contortion. He crawls towards Kirie, asking her to become a spiral too.

Variety's Dnis Harvey described the film as intriguing, if ultimately unsatisfying, and criticized a perceived lack of atmosphere betwe set pieces, along with its typically bland, schoolgirlish heroine.
Kim Morgan of The Oregonian described the film as beautiful, cold, oddly colorful and just plain otherworldly; she wrote that it contains many creatively terrifying and effectively gross sequces that stand on their own beautifully, but lamted that it doesn't flow into a consistt building of terror.
Ross Williams of Film Threat praised the film's sound design and cheesy, yet at the same time impressive and effective special effects, writing: While not as effectively creepy as The Ring, [Uzumaki] undoubtedly deserves to be watched.

Scott Tobias of The A.V. Club noted the style of the film, opining that kinetic shooting style doesn't pause for anything; like a lot of music-video and commercial directors, his achievemt is better considered shot-by-shot than as a whole.
AllMovie's Josh Ralske gave the film a score of three-and-a-half stars out of five, calling it visually imaginative and gagingly offbeat horror film, but its willful goofiness and unresolved story line doesn't offer much in the way of psychological resonance.
Higuchinsky stated that, since the film's release, he has received fan mail from Europe, which made him particularly happy as it was his dream to use film as a way to overcome national borders and have my movies watched by people all over the world. I think that these fans focus not on the story but on the simple images, they sse something through the visuals.which, for western audiences, served as an early warning of just how odd some parts of the post-Ring (1998) J-horror boom was going to get. Wild and hallucinatory, it isn’t particularly scary (Higuchinsky told author Matthew Edwards in an interview published in his 2017 book

Is not that the uzumaki itself is scary but rather the changes in the people caught up in it”) but it’s so odd that it’s utterly compelling and it’s certainly unsettling and unquestionably unique.
Based on a manga by Junji Ito (who turns up in the film as a face on a wanted poster), the film is split into four chapters (
), telling the tale of the small town of Kurozu-cho and the strange malaise that afflicts its residents. Teenager Kirie (Eriko Hatsune) first suspects that something strange is going on when she realises that her boyfriend’s father (Ren Ôsugi) is obsessively videotaping the corkscrew patterns on a snail’s shell. His obsession leads him to hunt down spiral shapes (the uzumaki of the title) and eventually take his own life in a bizarre desire to merge with the spiral by climbing into a washing machine. Soon the whole town is obsessed with spirals – more suicides follow as students at the local high school start griwng snail-like shells and vrtawling up walls. Student Kyoko (Hinako Saeki) grows her hair in writhing curls that exert a strange influence over not only her but most of the rest of the female students and eventually even the sky itself becomes a sinister mass of whirling clouds. The body count and transformations rise until only Kirie is left alone to face the curse of the spiral…
