X-Files inspiration?
I remember reading something somewhere - and it could just as easily have been on an IMDB thread for the X-Files - but it claimed, with extensive justification, that many of the key ideas in the ongoing story arc for The X-Files was very similar to the Quatermass series...
I'm talking about the black liquid virus thingie, the mutated corn crops, the white domes, etc. so maybe it was just the visual components, or maybe it was more (i.e. the plot elements) but I can't remember (it was more than 5 years ago I recall reading this).
Does this ring a bell for anyone?
