“Quatermass and the Pit” is a Horror, Sci-Fi Mystery, screenplay written by Nigel Kneale and Directed by Roy Ward Baker.

 

While digging a new subway line in London, a construction crew unearth a mysterious artifact along with a skeleton.

it is initially assumed an unexploded German weapon from World War II but upon closer examination it seems that it’s made of materials not of this world, so famous scientist Bernard Quatermass (Andrew Keir) is called in to divine its unearthly origins and explain the strange effects it has on people in its vicinity.

Along with assistant Barbara Judd (Barbara Shelley) Doctor Roney (James Donald), and Captain Potter (Bryan Marshall) and his sappers, Quatermass uncovers the age-old question of how humans came to be on our planet.

But their biggest challenge comes when trying to convince Colonel Breen (Julian Glover) and Government Minister (Edwin Richfield).
