The X-Files 2: I Want to Believe

Frank Spotnitz, who co-wrote the script to The X-Files: I Want to Believe, told a Los Angeles Film Festival audience that the sequel is an intellectual horror film.

"Mulder and Scully are so smart, it forces you to be as smart as you can possibly be to keep up with them," Spotnitz said earlier this month. "That's what's great about this audience is they are smart as well. Not to pander shamelessly, but it's true."
