I read a bunch of Junji Ito a few years ago. Uzumaki gets praise for being his longest and I guess most developed work but I think it doesn't quite work as a whole. It definitely has some interesting chapters and cool imagery but the end of the story just kind of happens and some of the vignettes are downright silly. There is one part involving people turning into snails that legitimately disturbed me though and got under my skin in a way no horror movie or story has.

Amigara Fault is definitely a good one. Glyceride will make your stomach church. Gyo straddles the line between being kinda silly and being horror, but it's about the ocean which automatically terrifies me so it worked for me.

I like his sillier ones as well; The Sad Tale of the Principal Post is so dumb it makes me laugh every time (it's a very quick read at only four pages): https://imgur.com/gallery/qqGe7

He did a really cute one called Junji Ito's Cat Diary based on his real life cats, framed as if they're spooky and devious but actually they're just harmless adorable cats. I def recommend even though it's not scary.

Love that he did officially-sponsored guest artwork for Pokemon as well:

That's a lot of input Ecto, pretty hefty post.

I'm not sure which is my favorite: his nonchalant observation there or the super subtle commentary of the piece.

Someone's been plastering up the same panel from Uzumaki all over my neighborhood like on street signs and newspaper boxes and everything. It's weird but also like...I really want to know who's doing it.

I suggest casual vandalism and then surveillance of one of the sites to uncover the identity of the mystery fan. Lay in wait, spring your trap. Then mail off a journal to me that details your experience before you get arrested and I will promise to make some shitty art house film about it. Once convicted I will sell the journal instead to a macabre collector and use the money to fund my true vision: live action The Sad Tale of the Principal Post.

I watched Berberian Sound Studio. It was fucking weird and I think I need to sleep on it before I write anything about it. If I can write anything about it.

We should pick one for our club to rabbit together. Is there one on all of our lists? Or a majority.
