Now the Bedbugs Are Threatening the Toronto Film Festival

Because New York moviegoers shouldn't have to endure this ordeal alone, organizers at the Toronto International Film Festival have confirmed they are fighting bedbugs at the Scotiabank Theater -- the primary venue for press and industry attendees from around the world. "Before bedbugs becomes today's meme: we're on it, we're talking to Cineplex & are planning for an itch-free #TIFF10," tweeted TIFF co-director Cameron Bailey. Mm-hmm. Sorry, Europe! Good luck, Asia and Latin America! Bring your duct tape and bug spray, Los Angeles! We're all blood brothers now. [THR]
