This movie was an early globalist movie pushing the old ‘humans = bad, animals = good’ garbage.

And it did indeed portray the Ugly American portrait as opposed to the Fabulous educated in other worldly things Limey concept.

Tom Good should have blasted both the Yeti and the Limey!

The movie also pushed a subtle Gaia tree worship as World Religion propaganda.

Christian, Judaisn, Islam Religions = Bad! Tree Spirit and Big Stinking Wooly Yeti Worship = Good!

Yeah, right, zzzzzzzzzzzzz….The film is notable only as an early piece of propaganda, clumsy as that presentation was. Today the propaganda and Agenda-Pushing is much more sophisticated with all the stuff we see coming out of Hollyweird …

The mind control aspect of the Yeti in the movie might be compared to the Gray man of Ben Macdui in Scotland. With the similar type of mind control and running in blind panic!

Very sorry to hear of Nigel Kneale’s death. ‘Quatermass and the Pit’ is the pinnacle of television science fiction: the series of the 60’s were space opera by comparison.

Agreed, this film is a class act. Spooky and atmospheric, and with one of the greatest reveals of all time. Hard to find nowadays, and expensive when you do come across it… hopefully we’ll see a re-release soon.

Really enjoyable movie. I might not have bothered watching it but for your excellent book on Tom Slick, Mr. Coleman! And, FWIW, I’m with you re: Friend = Slick.

RIP Mr. Kneale

I actually got to watch this movie the weekend before Halloween, and it was a good one to watch. Forrest Tucker is always good as the bad guy, and of course Peter Cushing is always great to watch. The way they protrayed everything makes me wish they could make movies like that today, just update the special effects and makeup.
