QUATERMASS AND THE PIT
Hobbs End, Knightsbridge, London.
Whilst working on a new subway tunnel for the London Underground a group of construction workers uncover a strangely shaped skull amongst the rubble.
Nearby is another discovery: a large, mysterious and impenetrable metal object.
Initially mistaken for an unexploded bomb the origins of the object and its strange power are far more horrific and terrifying than anybody could have possibly imagined.
Is it of this earth? Could it be the ancestral link to mankind’s evolution? Or could it be an ancient link to unleashing ultimate evil?
There’s only one man capable of unravelling the clues, his name is Professor Bernard Quatermass, a man of science who thrives on the dark mysteries of the world, a man with answers. Written by legendary screenwriter Nigel Kneale, Quatermass and The Pit is a seminal British sci-fi classic.
Highly influential, it’s renowned for its creepy plot and eerie, disturbing atmosphere.
There is nothing else like it.
Special Features include:
*New UK exclusive interviews with Julian Glover, Mark Gatiss, Judith Kerr, Kim Newman and Marcus Hearn
*Audio commentary with Nigel Kneale and Roy Ward Baker
*World of Hammer – Sci-Fi Episode
*UK and US trailers
*Interview with Joe Dante

October 9th, 2011 - 7:52pmAswell as being a Doctor Who fan, I am also a lover of all things sci-fi and am utterly ashamed to have to say that I have not watched this EVER! Oh please let me win as I’m not just the only sci-fi lover in my household – we all are. And this would definitely give me brownie points with them – not just for getting it but also for winning it! Good luck everyone x

doctorwhofan27
October 9th, 2011 - 7:27pmi haven’t seen this, but i’m just wondering how this is related to doctor who.
King Ninja
October 9th, 2011 - 7:42pmIt is actually related to Dr Who. Dr Who was made as a ‘childeren’s’ Quartermass…Only to be more educational (period settings etc.) and less dark than the adult series…Perhaps funny that the VERY dark and VERY adult Torchwood was born as a spin off from Dr Who! LOl!

October 9th, 2011 - 7:43pmActually, in Rememberance of the Daleks it is jokingly suggested that Quatermass happened in the Doctor Who universe and there are similar comments in Planet of the Dead (although it could be refering to it as being a fictional work but it’s not clear).
