The writers for the X-Files could sure come up with some creepy, nasty story lines couldn't they? It's not enough to run across werewolves and people-eating shadow monsters, but this time around they came up with a fat-sucking vampire wannabe. Probably more than any prior episode, and because there were so many scenes with people using computers, but didn't the technology look ancient going back some twenty odd years ago? The screens were those clunky, boxy looking things, and 'You've got mail' looked archaic by comparison with today. Just goes to show how rapidly technology advances in the twenty first century.
And how about chat rooms? Do they still have those? I never participated myself, but it seems with the advent of Facebook and Twitter, why trouble one's self in a one-on-one when you can spill your guts to thousands at a time?
The guy Virgil Incanto (Timothy Carhart) reminded me a lot of Eugene Victor Tooms. Not the squeeze through a ventilator shaft Tooms, but the everyday, creepy looking guy who looked like he had a terrible secret but couldn't wait to let you in on it. You know, you have to give the actresses credit who appeared in the story for accepting a role in which their physical features weren't runway model thin or fashion mag-cover glamorous. I mean really, how far would 2Shy get with somebody like Paris Hilton?
