Bug for your life!
“Bug” by Lionsgate flim, produced in 2006, kicked off its debut by winning the FIPRESCI Prize in the Cannes Film Festival. This bug movie is set to be released on the 25th May 07 in the US, featuring a strong cast which includes Ashley Judd (twice nominee of the 1997 & 2005 Golden Globe award, and various other awards) who plays Agnes White, and Michael Shannon who plays Peter. Living in a run-down motel in Oklahoma, the waitress lives in the shadows of her violent ex-husband but is soon consumed in a romantic relationship with Peter, a war veteran, a lover, and more importantly a protector. However, Peter comes with a ‘tiny’ problem – an eccentric paranoia state of mind that seems to usher in something more sinister. Bugs.
What really captures my attention to the show is the tag line on the poster, written “First they send in the drone… then they find their queen”. Coupled with the face of Ashley Judd on the poster (especially the one with the face on the body of the bug), it really makes me wonder if the queen is her! It might be, or it might not! Being a psychological thriller, there might be a twist towards the end of the show, which really makes me interested to find out what the tag line actually means and how Agnes White is related to the ‘queen’. Is Peter the drone? Hmm… I can’t wait to see how all these piece together in the bug movie! Meanwhile to be on the safe side, I think I better stock up on some insecticides!
