Like the episode Ice, Darkness Falls takes our favorite agents and puts them in an isolated area away from civilization. This time it is in the pacific northwest. Fortunately, this time Mulder and Scully and the people they are with don't have to fight with each other. They're all united against being killed by the green bugs. This episode has some good suspenseful, creepy moments. These moments occur when darkness falls, just as the episode title suggests. There is some great antagonism between the lumber company man and the monkey wrencher. The suspense keeps you riveted up until the very end. The end of the climax and the resolution, however, leave some big questions unanswered. It makes me feel like the writers thought, "Oh, we ran out of time. Let's hurry and wrap this episode up." So even though the ending leaves you wanting more, the rest of the episode is very good and definitely worth watching.
