Bug



Matt wants to see that bug movie with Ashley Judd, the one they're advertising as "from the makers of The Exorcist. He might have to find a buddy to go see it with him, because just the trailer makes my skin crawl. This looks like one that could leave me with nightmares.

I think the posters look pretty benign, though, especially this one (left). I guess it sets a dark mood, but unless you find Ashley Judd's face disturbing (you'll have to insert your own joke there, folks; I've sworn off mean comments, even for comedy's sake), I don't think it quite conveys the creepiness of the movie. The other poster, though (right), I think does a better job. I don't know why, but I have a more visceral reaction to that one. Maybe because it reminds me a little of the posters for Silence of the Lambs that show Jodi Foster with a death's head moth covering her mouth. At any rate, I think it does a better job of saying "Hey! This movie is creepy and disturbing and will probably give you nightmares! Good times!" At any rate, they've got me convinced I might not be able to handle the bug movie, although if my husband insists, at least I'll have the satisfaction of knowing he'll be kept awake by my nightmares, too.
