The Quatermass Xperiment

I enjoyed watching Quatermass last week and like many others as well as enjoying a well crafted story I enjoyed the depiction of 50s Britain.

I did not know that Donleavy who played Quatermass did it from the bottom of a whisky bottle but I did find him a little comedic. In that coat he was like a large rectangle with 2 short legs sticking out of the bottom....

Lets have some more of these BBC please.
 
'Curse of the Demon' is the American title for 'Night of the Demon'.
Ironically, Dana Andrews was also a heavy drinker according to Tony Earnshaw's book about the making of 'Night of the Demon'. He seems fine throughout most of the movie but seems to be slurring his lines at one point.
 
I recently watched the TV series from the 50s and I thought it was excellent! Basically done by today's standarRAB, but still effective!
