Bug.

It’s been a while since I last watched a horror flick. Among the films that gave me creeps the most were The Ring, The Grudge and the most horrifying of all time, The Exorcist. Have you heard that there will be a new horror film called Bug coming out soon in the US? Well, it’s not just an ordinary bug movie or a cartoon flick that was shown before.  Looking at the posters alone, it’s quite intriguing and mind-boggling why is it entitled such.

This movie by Lionsgate Films is starred by Ashley Judd, Michael Shannon, and Harry Connick, Jr. The synopsis of the movie reads: A lonely waitress with a tragic past, Agnes (Ashley Judd) rooms in a run-down motel, living in fear of her abusive, recently paroled ex-husband (Harry Connick, Jr.). But when Agnes begins with a tentative romance with Peter (Michael Shannon), an eccentric, nervous drifter, she starts to feel hopeful again – until the first bugs arrive.

I’m sure this will going to be one big hit. For one, this bug movie is directed by the great director William Friedkin and he just knows how to creep people out. How? His film, The Exorcist thirty years ago is simply enough to prove it.

Check out its trailer and get a preview of this bug movie. They tag it as one of the most disturbing horror movies imaginable. As soon as it will be released in the country, I’m off to find the reason what bugs got to do with this creepy film.
