creepy enya tune used before, 30 May 2007
Author: ned442 from United States

Actually that Enya tune ("Boadecia") was used some years ago in a creepy, campy thriller about shape-shifting, incestuous cat-people called "Sleepwalkers." Another Steven King movie adaptation gone horribly wrong.

This episode of "Criminal Minds" was quite effective and well written. Interesting to see the "unsub" portrayed so positively and to have Agent Hotchner sympathize with him.

The movie "Sleepwalkers" starred Alice Krige who went on to play the Borg queen in "Star Trek: First Contact." It also had cameos by King, Clive Barker, John Landis, Joe Dante, and Tobe Hooper. Mädchen Amick turns in a decent performance, well above the quality of the rest of the flick. Nice to look at, too.

But the haunting Enya tune is creepily effective. That movie also ended with a house on fire. (Sorry for the digression; just trying to satisfy the silly "ten lines" requirement for comments here.
