XF-ULTRA is an exhaustive yet highly-readable guide to the only TV series that really matters, going places others dare not go. Whether you're already a hardcore X-Files fan or just a novice, this is the one book you have to read to truly understand what you're seeing play out on your screen.
First, we start with the basics:
Pre-Season: A behind-the-scenes look at the creation and development of The X-Files.
X-Ancestors: A comprehensive examination of the TV shows and movies that influenced The X-Files.
UFO Conspiracy Theories: An introduction to the history of UFOlogy, as well as the parapolitical figures and events that shaped The X-Files’ storylines.
Human Experimentation: An overview of the dark history of medical abuse that lies at the very heart of The X-Files.
Declassified: Deep background on each of the series’ eleven seasons.
Case Dossiers: Detailed reviews covering all the episodes and feature films, packed to the gills with behind-the-scenes information and presented in an accessible, concise format.
A Season of Conspiracy: Overviews of the controversial and significant real-world events that occurred during each season of The X-Files.
Then we go DEEP…
The Mytharc for Beginners: A comprehensive primer that breaks down and lays out the X-Files Mythology arc in an easily digestible format.
Myths Behind the Mytharc: An extensive deep dive into the ancient myths that influenced The X-Files’ Mythology.
The First Toxic Fandom: An insider’s perspective on how The X-Files inadvertently fostered unhealthy and abusive online communities.
TV in the Wake of XF: A detailed survey of the TV shows and movies that were influenced by The X-Files.
But wait! There’s more!
“Real-Life X-Files”: A skeptical examination of the UFO disclosure cult and the so-called “real-life X-Files.”
Ancient Abduction: A look at the ancient cults that worshipped mysterious flying objects, including one that devised a method for initiating alien contact!
Millennium: An exploration of Chris Carter's groundbreaking crime drama.
The Lone Gunmen and 9/11: A hard look at the X-Files' spinoff and its eerie foreshadowing of one of the darkest days in American history.
PLUS:
- Deep dives into some of the real-world characters whose lives eerily parallel those we've seen on The X-Files.
- And an absolutely mind-blowing “Ultimate Fan Theory” that will have every X-Files fan looking at the series in an entirely new light.
And much, much more besides!
