5.0
Uzumaki is one of the best horror stories I've ever read. It develops perfectly, not too fast or slow, and it submerges you in the hell of a city the characters live in. The end is pretty intense, and with the pass of the characters, you start to be more concerned about what the hell is going on.
Graphic: Body horror, Cannibalism, and Confinement
Moderate: Death of parent, Pregnancy, Violence, Mental illness, and Murder
