Quatermass Conclusion Movie Review



Elderly and eccentric, Professor Bernard Quatermass is called out of retirement when a death ray from outer space begins to zap youths around the world. Adding to the problems, the superpowers aren't so super anymore and anarchy has taken over the streets, and it appears that Armageddon is just around the corner. Once again the screenplay is by Nigel Kneale and this is actually an editeddown version of the BBC miniseries. Poorly produced, and only slightly better acted, the story is still terrific, and as the other Quartermass films entertaining and thought provoking.
