Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })(For other uses of the term "Bug", see the disambiguation page)Bug is a 2006 Psychological Horror/Tragedy film based on the 1996 play by Tracy Letts (who also wrote the film adaptation), directed by William Friedkin and starring Ashley Judd and Michael Shannon.It centers around Agnes, an extremely lonely woman living in an Oklahoma motel room after the breakup of her marriage. A friend introduces her to Peter, who is similarly lonely, and the two start enjoying each other's company. The two open up to each other and then...well...The film and play presents us an intriguing example of folie à deux.Not to be confused with the 1975 William Castle-produced film about mutant cockroaches.

Ambiguous Ending: The post credits sequence implies that they didn't set themselves on fire, but given the schizophrenic feeling of the movie itself, its ambiguous if they did or didn't.

Corrupt the Cutie: What Peter does to Agnes. Agnes goes from a lonely, vulnerable woman to a tinfoil plastering suicidal conspiracy theorist.

Dark and Troubled Past: Agnes is divorced from a real Jerkass - who's in prison at the start of the movie and shows up to threaten her - and her son was stolen from a supermarket cart while she was shopping. Her overwhelming guilt and sadness leave her receptive to Peter's peculiar charisma.
