Review of The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) by Sarah H — 25 Oct 2012
The original Quatermass story is still the best, as the endless imitators demonstrate (yes, "The Astronaut's Wife," I'm looking at you). The film version, however, is diluted by a bland and characterless Prof.
Quatermass, as well as an explosive ending that negates writer Nigel Kneale's intent. The long-lost BBC serial was almost certainly better.
