Synopsis:

The pilot episode of the X Files and the second episode DEEP THROAT are the reasons why the first season of the show was the best. A true aura of mystery surrounded the episodes, nor would all the parts to the puzzle be filled in at the end and the foreshadowing was very high.

In PILOT, FBI instructer Dr. Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) is brought to her superiors with a new assignment. She is to be the partner of loose cannon agent Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) a brilliant agent whose theroies on the paranormal and mythology in his cases have alienated him from his fellow investagaters. It is Scully's job to find validity and scientific proof to Mulder's claims of alien involvment in his cases.

Their first adventure takes them to Oregon where strange occurances are affecting the young members of a small town. The towns people know what is going on, and don't want it spreading around or being discovered.

A good start for the show, characters are being introduced and we see development too. Most importantly we learn why Mulder is determined to find what is "out there" which will become a staple of plots in many episodes. Not to mention a particular scene where we see how much trust Mulder and Scully can show for each other.

DEEP THROAT is even better. Mulder is warned by a mysterious old man not to pursue interest in a case involving an Airforce base in Idaho where it's members are being affected by something strange. Despite this warning, Mulder and Scully go anyway to investigate the matter and end up in a desperate fight for the truth and probably their life.

This laserdisc is great for the person who wants to get into the show. Because there is no better place to start then the begining, especially with this particular show and this particular season of episodes.

THIS IS NOT A DVD!!! THIS IS A 12" LASERDISC AND WILL NOT PLAY IN A DVD PLAYER
