If this film had a simple, ambiguous story, it would've gotten three stars. Once you hear that William Friedkin's involved in a movie, though, you know that there's usually more to the story than meets the eye.
"Bug" is a strong psychological drama. And I say drama because eighty-five percent of it is jibber-jabbering. (The remaining fifteen percent is riveting and worth waiting for.) For those expecting bloodshed and mortal insects, you'll be disappointed as the most hardcore scene is that of the extracting of teeth. For those expecting a psychologically horrifying story, go ahead and watch this expecting disturbing results. The acting supports the suspense, but, even though Ashley Judd performs superbly during the first half, her feigned accent is noticeable in the climax.

Interesting premise to look at paranoid delusions but I just didn't believe Judd's character would be taken in by the delusions of someone in a psychotic state, to the extent shown here.

MCT:May 8, 2008The loser and lonely waitress Agnes lives in a cheap motel in Okalahoma grieving the disappearance of her beloved son Lloyd ten years ago. Her abusive ex-husband Jerry Goss has just left prison on probation and is insistently calling her. When her colleague and only friend, the lesbian RC, brings her drifter acquaintance Peter Evans to visit her, they have an affair and Peter stays with Agnes in her room. Peter finds bugs in their bed, and discloses to Agnes that he was a soldier in the Gulf War submitted to experiments by the army and presently he is infested with bugs. Agnes feels the same symptoms and the couple believes in Peter's conspiracy theory of the American government. This movie was horrible. There was nothing there to draw me in at all. The big climax of the movie happen in the last like 10 mintues. So, after all is said and done? our antagonist completes the psychotic paranoid transference to our protagonist they come to accept their fate, and actually relish the fact the "bugs" (that do not exist of course) are their offspring it is here they decide to pour gasoline over their bodies and burn themselves alive. Okay, it is here that I am actually happy because this film is over.
