The X Files Movie/The X Files: I Want to Believe

David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson reprise their roles as Agents Mulder and Scully in this double bill of feature-length supernatural thrillers. 'The X Files Movie' (1998) begins with the mysterious disappearance of a group of women in Virginia.

The FBI calls Mulder and Scully back to duty to investigate and they are led to a priest, Father Joseph Crissman (Billy Connolly), who is having strange visions.

Father Crissman's unusual apparitions subsequently lead Mulder and Scully to a bizarre secret medical experiment which may have a connection with the women's disappearance.

In 'The X Files: I Want to Believe' (2008), Mulder and Scully attempt to locate the source of a deadly virus, possibly brought to earth by aliens 37,000 years ago.

As usual, their investigation reveals a potential FBI-cover up, brings them into contact with conspiracy theorists (this time a paranoid doctor (Martin Landau)) and leads them to the door of the all-powerful, yet anonymous, Syndicate.
