Movie description
This deluxe collection includes the entire first season of the hit television show THE X-FILES, 24 episodes total. Includes such important episodes as the series pilot, in which agents Mulder and Scully meet for the first time; "Deep Throat," in which the duo investigate mysterious government aircraft; "Beyond the Sea," in which Scully's dead father may be trying to communicate with her; and the season finale, "The Erlenmeyer Flask," in which evidence of alien experiments is uncovered. Episodes previously unreleased on video include "Young at Heart" in which Mulder must contend with an old nemesis who seems to have come back from the dead; "Roland," in which a slow-witted janitor seems to be responsible for a series of murders in a jet lab; and many more. Includes interviews with series creator Chris Carter, interactive DVD-Rom material, and other special features. A must for any fan of the series.

The X-Files Season 1 Collector's Edition DVD Set - MINT

U.S. Release Collector's Edt. Thick Pack NOT Slim Pack

Here it is! This auction is for The X-Files Season 1 (7 Disc!) Collector's Edition DVD Set in MINT condition! This is the ORIGINAL Collector's Edition set which retailed for $150 when released. I am the original owner of this set, and it comes from a smoke-free and pet-free home. The set has never been viewed and only very rarely handled. The set is in virtually mint cosmetic condition, with no significant dings, dents, tears, or scratches in the beautiful cardboard box or inner packaging. The DVDs themselves are in their original, factory-fresh condition and have never been outside of their protective carriers.

These original Collector's Edition box sets have long been out of print. This is a great opportunity to pick up those missing box sets and complete your ultimate X-Files collection! My entire X-Files DVD box set collection is up for sale here on eBay, so please take a look at my other auctions if you need additional seasons!

Here's a great summary review of this excellent Season One box set:

In the first season of The X-Files, creator Chris Carter was uncertain of the series' future, so each of the episodes is a self-contained suspense story; they do not delve deep into the ongoing X-Files mythology or turn to self-parody and humor as do episodes in later seasons. Yet, these episodes display the elements for which the show would become famous: the cinematic production values and top-notch special effects, the stark lighting of the Vancouver sets, the atmospheric halo of Mark Snow's score, and the clever plots dealing with subjects ranging from the occult, religion, and monsters to urban legends, conspiracy theories, and science fiction. Most importantly, season 1 introduces FBI agents Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) and Fox "Spooky" Mulder (David Duchovny), two of the most attractive government officials around. Scully is the serious-minded medical scientist assigned to join Mulder on the X-Files, a division of the FBI dealing with the paranormal. Mulder is the intuitive thinker with a dry wit, a passionate believer in the existence of paranormal phenomena and one of the few characters on television smart enough to figure out who the bad guy is before the audience does. Their muddled relationship, a deep friendship laced with sexual tension, provides the human heart in a world where the bizarre and horrible lurk in everyday society.

The materials on the bonus disc provide some interesting trivia and background, but it is the 24 episodes themselves that make this seven-disc boxed set a true find. Those unfamiliar with The X-Files often view all the fuss with the same skepticism with which Scully first regards her new partner's ideas. But just as she comes to realize the uncanny accuracy of Mulder's outlandish theories, newcomers to The X-Files who sample a few episodes in this boxed set will likely find themselves riveted to their television late into the night. And undoubtedly, the shadows and creaking noises in the house that evening will seem more menacing than usual.
