The atmosphere of this episode was incredible. Duchovny and Anderson deliver yet another amazing performance, playing off each other while maintaining their believer and skeptic roles perfectly.
The guest stars and the subplots felt real, and added to the suspense and the fear of the episode.
Two problems, though: 1. If the bugs are afraid of light, then why do they MAKE it? Bioluminescence is cool, yes, but it would be cooler if it made sense. 2. If the bugs are afraid of light, why did they attack Spinney when he got out of the car to look at the tires and *left the headlights on*?
