Entertainment Reviews:
The playing, as usual in films of this type, is serviceable rather than distinguished, with Brian Donlevy as a brusque and peremptory Quatermass and Jack Warner as the sturdily dependable representative of Scotland Yard.

Yeah! Quatermass! Yeah!
New Times
Rating: 3.5/4 --
This is Hammer's first major horror/science-fiction hit, but almost as notable is the fact that its doomed astronaut is the founding member of the studio's tragic rogues' gallery of transformed innocents -- monsters that didn't ask for their fates.

One of the few truly great sci-fi films.

... the film is never less than intriguing and, at is best, is haunting, horrific and riveting.

A number of decent performances and a gritty realistic view of London makes this little sci-fi spin-off still worth a look.
