Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaWhen Mulder and Scully are in the library, if you look at the newspaper report, above the story of Howard Graves' suicide there is an article about a killer who extracts his victim's livers and escapes from impossible locations. This is a reference to Eugene Tooms from Squeeze (1993).
- GoofsWhen Mulder breathes on the glasses to reveal the fingerprints, they show up as black. Unless Mulder's mouth is full of fingerprint powder, the fingerprints should have been white.
- ConnectionsReferenced in Gone Home (2013)
Featured review
You don't see too many bosses graves without people dancing on it
Shadows the Limerick:
Her boss treated her like a dad.
Now he's dead and she's very sad.
Now he's a ghost.
Her new boss is toast.
He kills them all because he's mad.
Shadows is a great episode from Season 1. It seems that lately most of the season 1 episodes have kind of gained a soft spot with me as even the ones that I used to hate have become enjoyable for me. I think its the atmosphere that comes with the low budget kind of filming that they had. I like Shadows for a number of reasons. I like the corny acting, it is entertaining. Like the kids that find the bodies in the dumpster. "Hey... I know a great place to crash... up that fire escape." Haha this line is so terribly delivered. I enjoy Mark Snow's music as many of the classic tunes from the series are first used in these episodes and this one included. I like the creepy scenes like the blood in the bath tub and the hit-man floating in midair being choked. I guess its not the fact that this is anything really special but that fact that it is a classic that makes me love it. 9 out of 10.
