Bug (2006)
Notas del episodio
We saved the best for last as we conclude "Thanks for the Judds," a six-week programming block on Ashley Judd thrillers, with a look at William Friedkin's controversial 2006 adaptation of Tracy Letts' play Bug, which boasts a career-best performance from Judd.
So finish that impromptu tooth extraction and destroy that smoke alarm because we're going all in on this supremely disturbing film (though Friedkin considers it a black comedy!). You'll hear us say it in the episode, but this is a great fucking movie.
Plus: offering a primer on Tracy Letts, returning to the dreaded F CinemaScore, and heaping all the praise on Judd's iconic "Super Mother Bug" monologue that closes the film.
