"Harmony in Every Heartbeat
That was one very bad movie. As a very old scifi fan, for me it wasnt a very well thought out plot.
Can you post it in the correct aspect ratio? The distortion makes your video unwatchable.
Excellent !!!
Iooking foward to watching and criticizing the movie
Untill recently I had only seen the american version of "Quatermass and the Pit". Therefor I have two questions. Has the Quatermass charactor always been this stupid, or is it only this specific film in which he's been reduced to an F'n retard ? Also someone should have informed Quatermass that rockets are NOT "submarines ! What "pressure" at 1500 miles up is he referring to ???
Quatermass is annoying & pompous as I've ever seen a character.
Where's the VW bus engine? 😲It's been replaced by a wireless, duh duh duhhhh 🎶 (Dragnet music) 😂 😂
Donlevy would be better cast as a G-man. I think "The Trollenberg Terror" is a more effective example of British Sci-fi horror.
the lady at 30:57 she makes a couple of good 'points'. dear oh dear.
56:00 – a frankenstein meets an episode of Highway Patrol (if you know, you know!)
How have I never seen this?! Thanks for posting!
Why don’t they make more quatermass ????
I wonder if that Elon fella watched this film 🤔🤔🤔
These were the forerunner of the great Sci fi films made today but These great early black and white movies take the biscuits 😮 xx.
First saw this creepy one at the age of 9 or 10…. my first zombie flick. Now you know why I don't dig creepy zombie movies and I'm 76 !!
Youngish Gordon Jackson.
Nothing new, i wonder if Cubric nicked this from this film, walk around.
28:00 Bunsen burner, i remember in class we had them all on, to keep the classroom warm!
Quatermass ~ the 50s 'Elon Musk'.
1:22:48 "borrowed" from Frankenstein scene when Karloff throws Little Maria into the pond?
Been trying to find this show for a decade. It was scary great in the theater, when my family took brother and me to see it. 👍👍 5⭐ Countless thanks for sharing with us all. 💖
Bad aspect ratio
All rockets in the early sci-fi movie were V2 alike
Somehow in all my years I missed this movie & the 1957 follow-up movie. Brian Donlevy was a very good underrated actor. I'll watch the 1957 movie tonight.
Thank you
I want to see Quatermass vs the gin goblins from outerspace now.
👍👍👍👍👍
Great movie! Still creeps me out.
Thanks for uploading.
I saw this film as a kid in 1955, I went to see all the horror & Sci-Fi films of that period. But this film known to it's American audience as "The Creeping Unknown " rocked my world like know other film of the time..I would mostly laugh at most horror & sci-fi films ,but not with this film ..their was a dread I could not shake for days after I saw this film..even my parents noticed how different I became ..Now as a elder..& a film buff..I've read about this ground breaking film..& understand it had a great affect on many & a outstanding film on many levels..Thank You for posting this unforgettable film..
Donley ruins this film by overplaying his importance. Barking orders with horrible acting.
Magnificent movie, thanks for sharing the Quatermass legend
They're NEVER going to get the smell out of that building.
Does the word "biohazard" mean nothing to these boffins?

It's a pretty good film, but not a patch on the original series. Presumably to appeal to US audiences (and appease the American backers), they changed Quatermass from the quiet, thoughful academic British Professor of the original series into an American – a cold, ruthless, shouting and bullying "man of action". I don't blame Donlevy for that, it is the way the character is scripted. Apparently Nigel Kneale was very unhappy with the character changes. But it's a marvellous performance by Richard Worsdworth as the possessed Victor Carroon who manages to convey the horror of his situation even though it is a completely no-speaking part (save for the first few minutes where he mumbles "help me"). The ending is changed, in the original Carroon absorbs not only the bodies of the other astronauts, but their memories and personalities too; thus, Quatermass is able to appeal to Carroon's humanity and the creature committs suicide – in the movie, it is simply electrocuted.
When you hear There is no cause for alarm, you know something bad is about to happen.
1:22:48 What size do you recon that tent/ern overcoat is ???????
Looks like a V2
Something is wrong with the aspect ratio. I couldn't watched it with stretch image. Very uncomfortable 😢
hes such a dick in this its funny
dang the last time I seen this movie was back in the 70's on Bob Wilkens horror show. been looking for this movie for the longest time. thanks for uploading it.
Despite the woeful miscasting of Professor Quatermass and turning him from a thoughtful contemplative professor into a mob boss the film is rescued by Nigel Kneale, Val Guest, Richard Landau and a very compelling performance by Richard Wordsworth making an early Hammer classic. There is even a nod to Mary Shelley. I think the original ending could have worked but only with Jack Warner but they chose a different ending to the original story. The one big question which comes from this is why did they cast Brian Donlevy again?
Great old movie that scared the pants off me when I was a kid. But how on earth did the creepy-crawly manage to get from Deptford, all the way up to London Zoo in Regent's Park, then back down to Westminster…?
What's with the damn fake 16×9 image? This was shit 4×3 and should be seen in that way (it is available in its proper AR elsewhere).

great movie hints of the original frankenstein movie with karloff with the pathos of victim carroon and the little girl.
Very interesting, enthralling sci-fi/horror movie!!! From the alien space belt, to the absorption of it's victims, and endangering mankind😱!!! Always liked this since, I was a kid, of 9. And then especially, the 3rd. Quatermass (the one with the martian grasshoppers).
An absolutely brilliant science fiction movie , we have our American top 10 list of the 1950s greatest science fiction films and the only reason this is not on that list is because it is a British production. Donlevy is perfect as Quatermass and wordsworth is also a standout in a film full of top acting. Frightening and believable . Great score by James Bernard. A pioneer British science fiction classic. A sequel, Quatermass 2 , just as brilliant.
Radio in the engine compartment … too funny.
Oh dear. A reasonable rendering of Kneales original but so badly marred by Brian Donlevy, portraying a bellowing, rude and generally offensive Yank Bernard Quatermass. Was this deliberate one wonders?
There is also a young Jane Asher later in the film as a little girl playing with dolls by some barges
I need more Quatermass!!!
