The Sly Oyster | culture & entertainment on the sly

Over the weekend, the WonderCon gave X-Files nerds the first glimpse of actual footage from the movie.  The footage isn’t much, but judging by the audiences reaction there could be a small yet sizable audience for this movie.  Considering that the show went off the air six years ago and the last movie came out 10 years ago, it’s great to see there is still a strong connection to Agents Mulder and Scully.

Personally, I was just about one of the biggest X-Files fans.  When the show first came out, I was about 13 years old and that mix of horror, mythology, aliens, humor and sexual tension hooked me like nothing else.  I didn’t stick around for the end, but after watching this footage I can’t wait to reaquiant myself.

Hopefully, this means we’ll have an official trailer very very soon.
