Movie Reviews

Monthly Film Bulletin - 9/10 by MFB CriticsThe playing, as usual in films of this type, is serviceable rather than distinguished, with Brian Donlevy as a brusque and peremptory Quatermass and Jack Warner as the sturdily dependable representative of Scotland Yard.
Blu-ray.com - 8/10 by Brian OrndorfThe picture that helped to transform Hammer Films into an enduring fright factory, 1956's The Quatermass Xperiment earns its reputation as a legacy-hoisting hit.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by Kim NewmanA number of decent performances and a gritty realistic view of London makes this little sci-fi spin-off still worth a look.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 6/10 by Dennis SchwartzThis shoestring budget sci-fier began the craze in Great Britain for the modern horror film.
PopMatters - 6/10 by Michael BarrettThe movie was considered so shocking, gruesome, and adult that it received Britain's X certificate, meaning no one under 16 could be admitted.
User Review - 10/10 by L J"There's no room for personal feelings in science, Judith." Superb Hammer sci-fi classic, thanks in no small part to Richard Wordsworth's sickly, haunted portrayal of Carroon, the infected astronaut. Brusque and irritable Brian Donlevy grumpily barges his way through the film as Quatermass; Jane Asher plays the little girl who Carroon encouters by the river (in a scene vaguely reminiscent of the one in Whale's Frankenstein); Jack Warner provides jovial support as the Chief of police. Scored by the legendary James Bernard (his first for Hammer), this is wonderful stuff.
User Review - 10/10 by Kim BBased on the BBC's Quatermass Experiment, which only 2 episodes are available, as the rest of episodes were destroyed. This is the only way you are going to see what happend next. Even though the movie is the abridged version of the series, it still packs a punch.
User Review - 10/10 by Stuart YBased on the BBC's Quatermass Experiment, which only 2 episodes are available, as the rest of episodes were destroyed. This is the only way you are going to see what happend next. Even though the movie is the abridged version of the series, it still packs a punch.
User Review - 10/10 by Jeffrey DThe first in one of the most brilliant sci-fi series ever made in cinema, this 1955 classic marked the first time that a TV series and its character had been adapted for the big screen, a trend that would later be succeeded by other classics like STAR TREK, remarkable considering that TV was just becoming a groundbreaking medium in the early 1950's. The script, although shortened and altered from the original BBC serial (written by Nigel Kneale, who was not involved with the film but worked on the two Hammer sequels that followed), is nonetheless enthralling; the acting superb (Donlevy is both menacing and sympathetic as Quatermass, showing that the character is NOT to be taken lightly); and the atmosphere (beautifully established by Val Guest) reeks with doom. The first probe launched into space by Quatermass' Experimental Rocket Group crash-lands on Earth, with only one from the original 3-man crew present. Quatermass discovers during the course of study that the survivor has been possessed by a cluster of alien spores that absorbed the original crew and is using the astronaut as a host to assimilate other life forms for the process of mutation, after which it will eventually mature to release spores that will infest all life on the planet. The astronaut escapes during the course of study, with Quatermass working against time to locate him and destroy the parasite controlling him before it can infest the world. A beautiful way to start the series: intense, intelligent, adult and, even by today's standards, NOT for the squeamish.
User Review - 8/10 by Gordon CAn excellent film, with a sharp script and engaging characters. My favourite part of this movie is the final line, where Professor Quatermass says he's going to start again. It sums up the thirst for knowledge which is the core of all science, and the determination not to be beaten by obstacles and/or failures.
