Discussion of 1.08 "Bugs" - 3/12/06 (ITV2-UK)

[Vilandra]

After a construction worker is killed by insects burrowing into his brain, Sam (Jared Padalecki) and Dean (Jensen Ackles) investigate the town's history and find that the new housing development is being built on sacred Indian land. The Indians put a curse on the land after their reservation had been ravished and destroyed. Sam and Dean must find a way to survive and kill the deadly swarm of bees, locusts, spiders and beetles.

The episode was written by Rachel Nave & Bill Coakley and directed by Kim Manners.

I turned to Mrs P while we were watching this and said, "Bet you it's on an Indian burial ground" and it was! Old horror cliche aside, another thoroughly enjoyable ep. I'm looking forward to the next one (I think it should be Home) which I've read explains quite a lot about Sam, Dean and their Dad.

Home might be my favorite ep. It's in the top three at least.

—I suppose many of these scenarios are new and fresh for a lot of the young pups who missed them the first time, when X-Files was around...

Ugh this episode is horrible. Not as bad as "Route 666" though...
