THE X-FILES EPISODE BY EPISODE: SEASON 1

THE X FILES EPISODE BY EPISODE SEASON 1

In this book, the author explores the enduring show The X-Files and its first season – and why the appeal of Mulder and Scully withstands the test of time. Each episode is examined (with love) to look at how Mulder and Scully interact and evolve, and what influences were present in each show. Along with Mulder and Scully, the author looks at the other significant characters of the X-Files universe, including Cigarette Smoking Man, Deep Throat, The Lone Gunmen and Assistant Director Skinner, along with the villains, like Eugene Tooms and Luther Lee Boggs, to figure out how certain characters, stories and themes shaped this ever-popular show.

It’s available on amazon worldwide, on special sale price.

QUATERMASS IN TELEVISION AND MOVIES

Quatermass in Television and Movies

In this book, Mark explores the fictional adventures of Professor Bernard Quatermass. Quatermass was an inspiration to later shows; Doctor Who wouldn’t exist without it; The X-Files would take the ideas in Quatermass and make them their own, spreading these ideas into the mass consciousness. Quatermass has inspired creative filmmakers such as John Carpenter and Joe Dante. But where did the ideas of alien conspiracy and alien-human experimentation start?

The book takes the reader through the TV serials in the 1950s, the Hammer movies in the 1950s and 1960s, and various other TV and radio shows ranging from the 1970s right up until the 2000s.

Modern TV science-fiction starts with Quatermass. And this book explores both the Quatermass movies and shows, and how the ideas and themes present in them have permeated and enriched popular culture.

It’s available on amazon worldwide at a remarkably cheap price.
