This was the very 1st episode of the X files that I saw and I am glad it was this one. Brad Dourif, basically reprising his role from Excorcist III, delivers another stand-out performance as the psychic serial killer, Luther Lee Boggs. David Duchovny surprised me with his subdued performance; I had heard his character was "the believer" so I naturally expected he'd be the high energy one, but no; I was quite impressed with Gillian Anderson's performance in this--not surprising when I discovered later that this particular episode was written especially for her--to show the producers she had the skills to pay the bills; they were actually thinking of replacing her,at this point in the series.
This episode remains a favorite of mine, particularly Brad Dourif's performance.
