Another one of Junji Ito's stand-alone's, and one of his best. If you liked Uzumaki, I have very little doubt you would enjoy Tomie. Very different narrative, but the same Ito horror and incredibly detailed art style.
These horror mangas are both full of amazing weird drawings by the hand of Junji Ito. If you like to see people with disgusting problems, strange things and horrific scenes these are what you are looking for. Some of the best pieces of horror manga ever.
If you enjoyed Uzumaki you should definitely check out Junji Ito's other works, I especially enjoyed Tomie where the story is a bit less abstract (but still abstract) but one could say even more horryfing.
