In this gripping continuation a detective questions Ed Truelove, alias the Santa Claus serial killer, about the many bodies of children unearthed in the woods. Truelove claims there are no more bodies. He also claims not to have killed Amber Lynn LaPierre.

My Rating: 8/10
Some touching scenes and good special effects but it's kind of disappointing that Mulder's quest to find Samantha is over and that she's not alive.
