One Of The Coolest Scenes Ever Filmed ("THE X-FILES: FIGHT THE FUTURE", 1998)(video)

 


While investigating a bomb threat, Mulder and Scully share a lighthearted moment.

This sets us up for the intensely suspenseful scene to come.

Mulder and Scully balance each other well. Mulder is restrained, low-key, laconic.
Scully counters this with her expressive face and frenetic demeanor.

As Mulder stoically watches the bomb he's trapped with count down...
...Scully ramps up the suspense by taking charge of his rescue.

Her terse cry of "There's no time!" to a hesitant Mulder later on adds even more.

The explosion is followed by a masterful series of rapid-fire edits...
...and a single split-second shot of Scully's alarm as their car crashes.

All of this combined creates one of the most thrilling sequences ever filmed.
