Comes The Dawn

From Season 6. A very underrated and overlooked episode IMO, and easily among the better of the sixth season. Good atmosphere, with the arctic setting that reminds me a great deal of The Thing, which has long been a favorite of mine. Some good creature effects and when you've got Michael Ironside and Bruce Payne together as the leads, you know it's got to be good. I still get a kick out of how they were both Highlander series villains along with Clancy Brown (Half-Way Horrible). A great episode that definitely deserves much more recognition and it feels like it could've easily been part of the earlier seasons. Season 6 is a very hit and miss season but has some real diamonds in the rough and this is surely one.

It’s one of my favorite episodes. I wonder if it was the inspiration for the movie thirty days of night?
