Warning: Spoilers
My first introduction to the X-Files, when I was about 7 or 8 years old.

And boy, did it leave an impact! At that age, it wasn't necessarily a good one. I was disturbed, actually.

But after so many years, I have learned to love it and see it as an absolute masterpiece. Full of terror, violence, thrill and suspense.

I don't think that there has ever been a scarier scene on the X-Files that could beat the death of the sheriff and his wife. What made that scene so scary was the music, I've learned that happy music combined with horrible murder is very disturbing.

And of course, we got the whole incest storyline. The scene with the screaming mom is terrifying. It looks so real, too real actually.

Despite it being the scariest episode, it's also full of clever lines and wonderful interactions between Mulder and Scully.

Yeah, this is hands-down one of my favorite episodes of the show.

FIVE stars
