"Badlaa was the first Doggett-era X-File episode I ever saw, and upon initial viewing I thought it was awful. No questions answered, sloppy writing and a silly premise. However after seeing it in sequential order years later, especially after the previous couple episodes being so dull (Surekill and Salvage), Badlaa was a breath of fresh air. It doesn't spell everything out for the viewer, it has a unique monster-of-the-week (to say the least), and it feels like a genuine X-File because you are just as confused as the agents are - what is the killer's motive? How is he doing what he do..."
