31-Day Horror Challenge Day Twenty Nine: Quatermass and the Pit(1967)



No horror marathon would be complete without at least one Hammer Horror flick.  Quatermass and the Pit, a creepy little sci-fi/horror that is extremely well put together and thought out.  The atmosphere is nearly perfect and will leave you with a sense of dread.  I highly recommend it!

A construction crew unearths some strange skeletons and a large object that is at first thought to be a missile.  It soon becomes clear that it is not a missile at all but something that is not from this earth.  Once it begins to control people in an odd way, Professor Quatermass realizes something must be done.  It all leads up to a very bizarre and disturbing conclusion.

Hammer films are always great to escape from reality for a while with.  This one is no exception as its acting and story will almost think you are experiencing the whole thing.  Watch it, you won't be disappointed.
