VHS Movie Reviews of The X-Files - Wave 8 Triple Pack [VHS]

Movie Review: Are There Collectors Cards?
Summary: 5 Stars

The episodes picked for this box set are great, But if your looking for the "Collectors Cards that came with the first 7 box sets THINK AGAIN! As far as I can tell this final Box set in the series does not come with the six collectors cards. If I happen to be wrong about this please let me know. [...]I feel that the cards are one of the coolest things about this series and was looking forward to finishing my collection, but I guess I may have already finishd it.

Movie Review: "Did I Mention That Mr. Betts Had No Head?!"
Summary: 5 Stars

The "X Files" amazing fourth season contained some of the best episodes in the series history and Fox has included a number of them in their series of triple box sets.

Wave 8 includes the incredible "Small Potatoes" which boasts both a fabulous script by the amazingly talented Vince Gilligan and an award winning calibre performance by David Duchovny; the wildly outrageous "Leonard Betts" which has some great Mulder-Scully interplay and wild special effects; also included is the elaborately produced two parter: "Tempus Fugit"-"Max", which though a conspiracy based story, avoids all the annoying qualities of the usual "X" mythology episodes (there's no heavy handed speeches and no appearances by the "cancer" or "well manicured" man, all of which overstayed their welcome by the time season 4 began).

"Tempus Fugit and "Max" also boast the production values of a Hollywood feature...the re-creation of the plane crash site is incredibly well done.

The "X-Files" in its heyday, was one of the hippest,most subversive shows in the history of television, and the two Season 4 box sets (who can forget the Peacock Brothers and their insatiable Mama?) are video time capsules of a great era.


Movie Review: What REALLY happened to Mulder?
Summary: 5 Stars

This new box set of VHS tapes contains some of the most memorable episodes of the series, in my opinion. Who could forget "Small Potatoes," and Luke Skywalker's lightsaber? I think the question that episode raises in the mind of every 'Shipper is, "If that had really been Mulder and not Van Blundht, would Scully have given it up?"

In the more serious episodes, we find out about Scully's cancer. And then, of course, the climatic cliffhanger episode "Gethesmane." When that episode originally aired at the end of the fourth season, that summer was the longest summer of my life. I could not wait to find out what REALLY happened to Mulder. "Gethesmane" leads into Season 5, one of the best seasons of the show.

Over all, this is a nice box set. I received mine for Christmas, actually. My only complaint is that it's not DVD. Still, the episodes chosen for this set are the best of the season--a nice blend of comedic, gross, scary, sad, and simply dramatic.


Movie Review: X-Files will always been entertaining!
Summary: 5 Stars

Ok, personally, I have loved almost, ALMOST every single one of the X-Files episodes up to now, and I can't wait for next season! I love how they put the most interesting and most loved episodes on tape. Eg, Memento Mori and Leonard Betts, mememorable episodes for any true fan, Small Potatoees for that almost kiss with Mulder's look alike, the intriguing yet enjoyable Tempus Fugit/Max, and the cliffhanger of Gesetheme. I am upset that it took them so long to bring these out and also very upset they don't have the cards any more, but I do love the episodes, so all in all, great show, great tapes!

Movie Review: Great season for a great series
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't know what that one reviewer Lee was talking about when referring to Tempus Fugit/Max. The two-parter included in this set is phenomenal. If you ever wonder what it is like to be in a plane crash, Tempus Fugit/Max will show you what it's like. That's not all either, this two-parter, though not tied in with the Mythology, is one of my favorites, it has all the aspects that got me to watch the X-files way back in season one,...aliens, conspiracy, dark government officials, cover-up...you name it. Leonard Betts and Memento Mori continue the development of Scully's cancer. Small Potatoes, the comical take on the ability to change appearance,..all superb writing in this season. And Gethsemane,..I could watch this one over and over! I have nothing bad to say. Season 4 and season 6 have been two of the best seasons,..and thanks to the DVD releases coming soon, we are going to be able to have all of the episodes from these two...as well as all the other, seasons.
