When I lived in Maryland I used to visit a certain Blockbuster video store to check out their large selection of foreign films. I recall picking up one movie box that instantly cracked me up. It was a Japanese horror film about Spirals. At the time, it seemed that every month there would be a new Japanese horror remake so I paid no attention.

Lately I've been seeing a lot of spirals and spiral type shapes. The other day I spent some time walking by the river and was just mesmerized by these vortexes in the water near the edge. Some would linger and then disappear while others were constant and would get bigger and smaller. Guess I should have taken that Fluid Dynamics class in college eh?

Anyway, I don't think the spirals are out to get me, but it's funny how my brain has decided to pick them out lately. I even mowed my backyard in a spiral pattern today!

So I looked up that movie and its in the title of this post. Here's a hilarious trailer for it. Though the ending may lead you to believe it's the Japanese version of The Hills.
