        <title>Bug — True Horror, or Just Truly Horrible?</title>
        <link>http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/05/27/Bug---Horror-or-Just-Horrible.aspx</link>
        <description>The mysterious Peter (Michael Shannon) drags the pathetic Agnes (Ashley Judd) inexorably down the short, dark tunnel of his bloody and bug-ridden schizophrenic delusions.&amp;nbsp; Hilarity ensues.

Adapted for the screen by Tracy Letts from her own play and directed by the legendary William Friedkin, BUG builds tension upon tension to what should be a real screamer of a climax, but ultimately delivers a flatulent letdown that had the audience booing and hissing as the credits rolled.

You've gotta be concerned when an ad campaign has to go back more than 30 years to cite a director&amp;rsquo;s biggest successes.&amp;nbsp; But the ploy seemed to work, considering the majority of moviegoers (including myself) don&amp;rsquo;t have the retention capabilities to remember such stinkers as JADE, THE GUARDIAN or THE HUNTED.</description>

            <description>ok i work at the movies. Do you have any idea how many people wanted refunds? I mean the movie was made out to be some sci fi thriller but please it was more like watching a documentery on why not to do heroin. It was just wierd and honestly i saw it for free....and still wanted a refund.</description>

            <description>Who made this movie?? a schizophrenic?? I thought slither was bad, but this takes the cake!! Well at least I can say one thing for it. Those two were meant for each other!!  Whats really funny, is I thought her ex was looney, but  she went from bad to worse!! If some guy I really didn't know started talking about bugs, I would have said honey, don't let the bugs bite you on the way out!! BYE BYE BUGGY!!</description>
