Farewell to Mark Snow (1946-2025) — composer of memorable music for TV and film for 50 years.

He literally leaned into THE X-FILES theme on his keyboard after creator Chris Carter rejected previous attempts.

Lorrayne
before you hit me with that object
shaped like a toblerone
let me explain…

—Hugh McMillan, “The X Files: Bonnybridge, October ’95”

The X Files: Bonnybridge, October ’95
Hugh McMillan

Lorrayne
before you hit me with that object
shaped like a toblerone
let me explain.
We only went for a half pint and a whisky
then set off home but somehow
lost two hours on a thirty minute journey.
My mind’s a blank
but Brian clearly saw
Aliens with black eyes and no lips
leading us onto a kind of craft.
I tried to lash out, explain that I was late,
but they used some kind of numbing ray on me:
it put me in this state.
Lorrayne, don’t you see what it explains?
All the times I crawled home with odd abrasions.
Put that down Lorrayne,
don’t you see I have to go again,
for the sake of future generations?

The X-Files: I Want to Believe — Vrach Frankenshteyn is Chris Carter's darker cut of his 2008 film. I am looking forward to watching this on August 14th. It's an R-rated cut of the film instead of the PG-13 cut that was released theatrically.
