Close to Home: A Musical X-File

If the end of the X-Files revival has you going through withdrawal, I may be able to provide some relief. A good buddy of mine recently wrote and composed a hysterical parody of one of the original series’ most infamous episodes entitled Close to Home: A Musical X-File. The episode in question,”Home,” was so dark and disturbing that it was prefaced with a viewer discretion warning, and Fox never rebroadcast it except for a special airing on Halloween in 1999.

This show is frickin’ amazing. My friend has some serious musical chops, and Close to Home is brimming with catchy songs. If you’re an X-Files fan, or if you’re just in the mood for something wickedly funny, you should definitely check it out. But be warned: although it’s all in jest, the subject matter is rather gruesome. You can watch the whole thing here:
