Hosts Mat Bradley-Tschirgi, Thrasher, and Alex Miller discuss Quatermass 2. A factory near a small village is hiding a terrible secret.

Adapted from a 1955 BBC miniseries, Quatermass II has a larger scope as we see how a small town's community sways their opinions on the effects of the big factory in town employing most of the locals. Brian Donlevy returns once again as Professor Quatermass and spits out exposition in a hurried manner that recalls some of Dan Aykroyd's old characters on Saturday Night Live. Vera Day is nice in a brief role as the barmaid Sheila.

Featuring a larger scope and a tighter story than the original, Quatermass 2 is worth tracking down.
