I was trying to remember what happens "Die Hand Die Verletzt," and it took me a while before I remembered the plot and outcome. Watching the episode again, there's a couple good reason why it's not memorable. The guests are more set pieces for Mulder and Scully to interact with. There is good acting, but the characters are more to create the occult vibe than to be real people.
The plot is average, as we know who the culprit is while Mulder and Scully investigate. Still, the tone is scary enough to carry the episode. The episode ends frighteningly as Paddock disappears. The final camera shot shows someone looking inside at Mulder and Scully, but of course they have no clue what's going on.
Score: 9.0/10
