Note to Chris Carter, director of “The X-Files: I Want To Believe”:
If you want us to believe your movie is really happening in West Virginia, you should probably visit it once, or maybe look it up on Google. The Appalachian Mountains in West Virginia look nothing like The Rockies in British Columbia, where you filmed your movie. Thank you.
Billy Connolly (pictured) plays convicted pedophile and psychic Father Joseph Crissman. Behind Connolly are mountains that are obviously not West Virginia.
Maybe Carter figures pedophiles live only in Appalachia?

Oh well, not every detail of John Denver’s “Country Roads” was accurate, and it did no damage. Who knows, maybe someone watching the movie may determine to see WV for himself. WV could use the tourist dollars. By the way, did you know that Morgantown has surpassed Wheeling in population?
Being a huge fan of the X-Files series, I do remember a number of “West Virginia-centric” plotlines.Often there were just too many big, wet, dripping pine trees to convince me that it was indeed WV.
