The Quatermass Xperiment  — 4K 10/04/25

Wonder of wonders — Hammer’s massive boxed sets seem unreasonable until one sees the depth and breadth of the extras. Nigel Kneale’s original ‘organic invasion’ scare show hasn’t lost its power, thanks to Richard Wordsworth’s compelling performance and the dogged intensity of Brian Donlevy. The 4K encoding is superb; they’ve added the U.S. version plus an extra stereophonic mix. Aimed at wealthy Sci-fi addicts, I suppose, but it is a thing of beauty. On 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray from Hammer Films.
