[UA] Weirdness: Child born with parasitic undeveloped conjoinedtwin

[Josh Riggins]

For some reason, this part cracks me up:

"Within the past two years, conjoined twins were successfully separated
at medical centers in New York, Los Angeles, Dallas and Baltimore. Last
summer, 29-year-old Iranian twins conjoined at the head were separated
at a hospital in Singapore. Both died."

And I can't say I've ever heard the term "parasitic brain" before. How
cool.

I still haven't checked out Tomie yet but I've heard it's pretty good. I
like the hell out of Uzumaki though and definitely recommend the comic.
I've got the movie as well, and while I can say that it has that odd,
creepy vibe that a lot of Japanese horror flicks successfully pull off,
it really wasn't that great. The little montage at the very end was
pretty cool though.

That picture also reminds me of the _Tomie_ horror manga by Mr. Itoh
Junji, 
where Tomie is a mysterious schoolgirl whose body constantly regenerates

copies of herself.  At one point in the series, she starts growing a
second 
face on the back of her head.  Itoh also created a manga titled
_Uzumaki_.  
The comics are great - weird, gross, and scary. They've also been made
into 
films in Japan.
