The Quatermass Experiment PG

Based on Nigel Kneale’s phenomenally successful television serial of 1953 and broadcast to a terrified nation shortly after the death of King George VI, The Quatermass Xperiment chronicles the impact on British society of the return from space of an infected astronaut, who mutates into a ghastly new organism that threatens to destroy life as we know it. Guest’s nightmare scenario was so successful that it transformed the fortunes of Hammer Studios, and lead the way to its dominance in horror for many years to come.
