Wasn't this an X-Files episode?


I enjoyed this movie, but it held several striking similarities to an episode of The X-Files, in which Fox Mulder is trapped in a time loop until he can stop a bank robbery. I was just wondering if I was the only one that noticed this.

You're right.
Good episode. The difference being that Fox Mulder just keeps reliving the same day over and over.

Exactly, making that episode a x-files version of Groundhog's Day, which ripped off something else that I forget the name of.

I remember a movie (80'?) about a guy who got caught in a loop hole due to an experiment in some big american city, and he was the only one, so he tries to stop it. Does anyone know what movie i'm talking about?

Exactly :) the episode was called monday :) And Mulder wakes up in his waterbed which had just started to leak :) Good call
