For me, "Squeeze" has always been one of the creepiest X-Files episodes ever. Hence, I am watching it alone, with all the lights on and half an eye on the air vents. I'd forgetten the reference to the original World Trade Center bombing, and it startled me. I'd also forgotten the geeky charm of early Mulder and Scully, with the hair cuts and the glasses and the suits.

Kim Bassinger is in this movie with the Slim Shady fellow? I confess morbid interest in it, for reasons unknown.

I still hate car commercials, commercials for tampons, soda and paper towels

Which episode is that? And the movie is supposed to be good.

It's the episode with the guy who comes out every thirty years, kills five people and steals their livers. He gets in through air vents and stuff, because he can squeeze and stretch his entire body.

It is? Perhaps I won't feel guilty about seeing it then.

Eugene Toombs! That's like the best X-files episode ever. Well, that at the guy with the tail who can morph into other people's shapes. It's the only one that makes me remember random stuff like the guy's name. There's a sequel to the first episode too, just as good.

I should really think about not watching this show in the dark when I'm alone. Eesh. Toombs is one of the creepiest ones ever. Him, and the inbred redneck family.
