The definitive science-horror story and the film that catapulted Hammer from a B-picture studio into the majors, The Quatermass Xperiment still retains its power to shock seven decades after its initial release. Brian Donlevy stars as the legendary Professor Quatermass, alongside Jack Warner, Margia Dean and Richard Wordsworth in this brand-new 4K restoration from original film elements, presented in both its original as-filmed fullscreen and as-exhibited widescreen aspect ratios. When the British-American Rocket Group sends an experimental manned spacecraft into outer space they soon lose contact and it crash-lands over two days later. But, as the scientists force entry to rescue the three-man crew, they find to their horror only one astronaut and two empty space-suits...
