Movie Reviews of Quatermass (1979)
Movie Review: Overated
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this looking for a new experience in Sci-Fi and this got great reviews. It is hopelessly dated and not entertaining at all. I am giving this two stars on the basis that the DVDs played and it had a good premise. The premise could've been developed further into an interesting story.
Summary of Quatermass (1979)
As the millennium draws to a close, civilization is on the verge of collapse. Gangs rule the streets. Books are burned for fuel. And a monstrous force from outer space is destroying the world's youth. Planet Earth is in dire need of a hero. Enter the world's greatest rocket scientist--Professor Bernard Quatermass. Fresh out of retirement, the aging Quatermass is as brilliant and plucky as ever. While London crumbles under anarchy, the professor uses his powerful intellect to marshal assistance from American and Russian quarters and combat what could be the planet's final enemy. Along the way, he hopes to be reunited with his missing 16-year-old granddaughter. One of sci-fi's most original creations, inspiring favorites like The X-Files, this classic 1970s production of QUATERMASS stars Academy Award?-winner Sir John Mills (Ryan's Daughter, Gandhi) and features all four episodes, plus the rarely-seen theatrical version, on DVD for the first time ever.
