It has been a long time since I sat curled at the corner of my couch wishing for a movie to end. The viewing experience made me uneasy and skiddish, like the first time I watched The Cell. Sick Fascination. Psychologiacally both moving pictures just dug in and stayed with me for days. I've been of the opinion for the last few years that mental illness, particulary clinical psychosis (ie delusions of persecution snensory hallucination) has endless potential for solid stories. Especially coupled with maniaor schizo-affective. Too much expalnation of clinical psychology could serve moot and distracting in the story but with so many knuckleheads who seemingly believe schizophrenics have "multiple personalities" someone should write the record straight. Dissassociative Disorder (multiple personalititties) is extrememyl rare, very diificult to diagnose, and when such diagnosisis
's is warranted, it is usually in women due to extremem emotional or sexual abuse as children. Said persona's are created in the mind to escape. Man, I heard, what was the name of that John Cusak Movie, at the hotel, ... anyway, folks with multiple personalities don't know they exist. IDENTITY Greeat falkland movie.
In conclusion, Bug was the most intense movie I'd seen in years. When that bozo started yanking his teeth out. Ashley Judd looks gooooooooood goin crazy.
THe following quote has nothing to do with this moving picture. Sort of.
