Does the dog die?

The Bay
Movie • 2012 • Horror
ReportSynopsis
Two million fish washed ashore. One thousand blackbirds dropped from the sky. On July 4, 2009 a deadly menace swept through the quaint seaside town of Claridge, Maryland, but the harrowing story of what happened that Independence Day has never been told—until now. The authorities believed they had buried the truth about the tragedy that claimed over 700 human lives. Now, three years later, a reporter has emerged with footage revealing the cover-up and an unimaginable killer: a mysterious parasitic outbreak. Told from the perspective of those who were there and saw what happened, The Bay unfolds over 24 hours through people's iPhones, Androids, 911 calls, webcams, and whatever else could be used to document the nightmare in Claridge. What follows is a nerve-shredding tale of a small town plunged into absolute terror.

Nothing at all happens to the dog, though he is shown with only one eye.

There are not bedbugs, but people and animals are infected with large amounts of isopods and some scenes of fish with large amounts of mancae (isopod larvae) in/on them
The whole premise is tiny bugs eating their way under your skin and through your body, before emerging as big bugs

Kind of? A doctor who’s told by the CDC to abandon his patients instead stays and continually films himself and how the parasite is affecting him. This is after pretty much all the patients have died, though. It’s more of a “captain going down with the ship” kind of vibe

Yes, Alot. Like half of the movie. All emetophobes, avoid this movie at all cost. I made the mistake of watching it and I was anxious and paranoid and couldn't sleep the whole night. The ending had the worst audio you could imagine. I managed to watch the whole thing but covered my eyes and ears for half of it. I would've gave it 4 stars out of 5 if it didn't have all that unnecessary phobia inducing scenes

Presumably yes, as hundreds of adult women are displayed on screen and, law of large numbers, some percentage of them were probably menstruating during the events of the film. However, it is never shown on film nor mentioned.
