Quatermass and the Pit/Quatermass 2 2004 Horror Movie Review

Much has already been said about these two movies. I just want to add that some of the effects in Quatermass and the Pit are very good, like the giant grasshopper at the end. All in all the best thing about these both is the excellent story telling. Particularly Quatermass and the Pit. When I first saw this as a kid I didn’t know whether it was horror or science fiction, it has both and is told very well. I consider this to be one of the definitive science fiction movies of the era. Nothing like this one has ever been done since. This set of movies for sci-fi was equally the quality equivalent of Hammer’s Mummy and Dracula movies.
