Quatermass and the Pit is the gold standard of the movies, though.

What could be considered a dry, slow piece of 1950s sci-fi 'horror' is instantly elevated by the presence of the character Bernard Quatermass and the incredible performance of Brian Donlevy as him. Quatermass is this incredible ball of anticharisma, and I love him

Après 'Le Monstre', Brian Donlevy reprend le rôle du physicien Quatermass luttant contre des extraterrestres. Le début est verbeux, mais par la suite, la tension dans une ambiance guerre froide face à des entités pouvant contrôler les humains est redoutable.

Ella Raines was a real beauty 😍, & a superbly talented actress. Brian Donlevy was an exceptional actor too.
Highly recommended!

With the mystery films now over, having a little run of Quatermass movies.
The first one has a terrible performance from a clearly barely able to stand up Brian Donlevy (I don't get the reassessment of his sozzled prof in more recent years), but an amazing turn from Caroon.
