Mulder and Scully are back in the thrilling novelization of the summer 2008 blockbuster movie based on the classic X-Files TV show! When a group of women are abducted in the wintry hills of rural Virginia, the only clues to their disappearance are the grotesque human remains that begin to turn up in snow banks along the highway. With officials desperate for any lead, a disgraced priest’s questionable “visions” send local police on a wild goose chase and straight to a bizarre secret medical experiment that may or may not be connected to the women’s disappearance.
REVIEWS:
----------------------------------------
"It is a little silly, but it's also a skillful thriller, giving us just enough cutaways to a sinister laboratory to keep us fascinated. (...) the movie works like thrillers used to work, before they were required to contain villains the size of buildings. (...) Rating: **** (out of four)." (Roger Ebert: Chicago Sun-Times)
----------------------------------------
"Baggy, draggy, oddly timed and strangely off the mark, (...) The new film, Mr. Carter’s debut as a feature director, adds even less [than the first “X-Files” movie], but it won’t hurt the show’s legacy, at least among die-hard fans" (Manohla Dargis: The New York Times)
