Bug

(1975)Directed by Jeannot Szwarc99 min · PGScience Fiction, Horror, Mystery, Thriller
“Out of the worst nightmare!”

An earthquake splits the ground open in a small American town, and out of the crack come cockroaches that can start fires. Prof. James Parmiter (Bradford Dillman) studies them, and his findings point to consequences far wider than the burned buildings. Jeannot Szwarc, working from a William Castle production, shoots the insects in close, grainy detail and keeps them crawling at the edges of every frame.
